WORD STUDY – A SONG OF VICTORY – זמר

Psalms 118:14: “The Lord is my strength and song and is become my salvation.”   I remember years ago we used to sing a little chorus based upon this verse.  I remember my spirit was always quickened when I heard the words the Lord is my song.   Until now, I never...

WORD STUDY – THE LETTER PEI – פ

    Psalms 119: 136: “Rivers of water run down mine eyes, because they keep not thy law.”   This morning I was reflecting on a recital put on by a local music school that I attended some time ago.  The performers were about junior high school age and I had to...
