Biblical Reflections

About Biblical Reflections

Biblical Reflections is a Christ-centered Bible teaching podcast that journeys through Scripture with host Andrew — a storyteller at heart who happens to know his Greek. Andrew came up in a working-class home, and it shows in the best way: he'll take you into the depth of the text, then explain it plainly and clearly, the way a good storyteller does. The result is teaching that's thought-provoking and genuinely engaging — his passion for God's Word comes through in every episode. Each season takes on a new focus. Season 1 traced the gospel across Scripture — every place the good news of Jesus breaks through. The current season walks through the Psalms, one at a time, with Proverbs up next. Wherever you're joining from — deep in study or just along for the journey — there's a place for you here. New episodes weekly. A podcast from Cogworks Media, an independent, interdenominational media ministry amplifying faithful voices for the Great Commission. Find all our shows at cogworksmedia.org.

   Psalm 96: Declare His Glory Among the Nations

   Psalm 96 is a hymn celebrating God's kingship over all the world, which should lead all people to love and worship Him. It is unusually evangelistic for the Old Testament, reaching out to the Gentiles, and it is also prophetic, looking ahead to the time when God will judge all people with equity. Through the New Testament we see that day arriving as people from every nation come to God through faith in Christ. **Verses 1–6 — Sing a new song.** "Oh sing to the LORD a new song; sing to the LORD, all the earth!" The Creator has splendor, majesty, strength, beauty and marvelous works, so all the earth should sing His praise and bless His name. The gods of the peoples are worthless idols, but the LORD made the heavens. A "new song" is about freshness: always finding new ways to praise and thank Him. **Verses 7–9 — Ascribe glory to the LORD.** Now the singer speaks directly to the nations. They are to ascribe to the LORD the glory due His name, His name standing for all that He is. They should bring offerings into His courts and, trembling, worship Him in the splendor of His holiness. **Verses 10–13 — He comes to judge.** "Say among the nations, 'The LORD reigns!'" The LORD will judge the world in righteousness, faithfulness and equity, never deviating from His holiness or His covenant promises. So all creation joins the celebration: the heavens, the earth, the sea, the fields and the trees, along with the faithful from every nation, sing for joy before Him. This is Season 2 of Biblical Reflections, a week-by-week walk through the Psalms to shape our prayer and our praise.

   Psalm 95: Today, If You Hear His Voice

   Psalm 95 calls those singing it to learn from the rebellion of an earlier generation and to commit themselves to faithfully following the covenant. In many ways it is also a prophetic psalm, looking ahead to a day when people from every nation worship God. After the lament of Psalm 94, it returns us to the hymns celebrating God's kingship over all creation. **Verses 1–7a — Come, let us worship.** "Oh come, let us sing to the LORD." The LORD is the great King above all gods and all kings. The depths of the earth, the heights of the mountains, the sea and the dry land are His, because He made them. On that basis we kneel before the LORD our Maker, for we are the people of His pasture and the sheep of His hand. Sheep don't do well without a shepherd, and the King over all creation is ours. **Verses 7b–11 — Do not harden your hearts.** "Today, if you hear his voice, do not harden your hearts, as at Meribah." The generation of the Exodus saw God's works and still tested Him. They went astray in their hearts and did not follow His ways, so they did not enter His rest, likely meaning the Promised Land. Instead they spent the rest of the forty years wandering in the wilderness. The lesson carries to us as new covenant people. If the great King and Creator is speaking, we listen and follow Him, and His rest is found in His presence, both now and in the future.

   Psalm 94: Rise Up, O Judge of the Earth

   Psalm 94 is a community lament, written at a time when the wicked exult in their wickedness and oppress the faithful, many of whom are socially weak. It breaks briefly from the kingship psalms around it to ask God to take action and protect His people. Andrew walks through the psalm in five movements. **Verses 1–3 — The appeal for justice.** "O God of vengeance, shine forth! Rise up, O judge of the earth." The psalmist calls on God to repay the proud as they deserve. Justice belongs to God's character, and it includes vengeance on the wicked. That vengeance is His to take, not ours. **Verses 4–7 — The oppressors.** The wicked are arrogant and boastful, but it goes beyond words. They crush God's people and kill the helpless: the widow, the sojourner and the fatherless. Then they say the Lord does not see. **Verses 8–11 — God sees.** "He who planted the ear, does he not hear? He who formed the eye, does he not see?" The God who made us knows the plans of the wicked, and those plans are but a breath. **Verses 12–15 — God keeps the faithful.** The Lord will not forsake His people. He disciplines and teaches them, and often He rescues the faithful through the trouble rather than out of it, walking alongside them as they grow in faith. **Verses 16–23 — God rises up.** "When I thought, 'My foot slips,' your steadfast love, O LORD, held me up." God's steadfast love is the basis of the request. Wicked rulers may frame injustice by statute and condemn the innocent, but the Lord is a stronghold and a rock of refuge, and He will bring the iniquity of the wicked back on them. When the faithful feel outmatched, Psalm 94 gives us words to pray: honest about the wickedness, and anchored in the God who sees, keeps and rises up for His people.
