About this episode
Psalm 122: Glad to Go to the House of the LordThis script presents Psalm 122, a Song of Degrees of David, expressing joy at being invited to go into the house of the Lord and to stand within the gates of Jerusalem. It describes Jerusalem as a city compact together, where the tribes of the Lord go up to give thanks to the name of the Lord, and where thrones of judgment are set, the thrones of the house of David. The psalm calls listeners to pray for the peace of Jerusalem, promising prosperity to those who love her, and asks for peace within her walls and prosperity within her palaces. It closes with a personal commitment to seek Jerusalem’s good for the sake of brethren and companions, and because of the house of the Lord our God.00:00 Psalm 122 Introduction — A Song of Ascents (David)00:08 Joyful Invitation: Going to the House of the Lord00:13 Standing in Jerusalem: The City Built Compact Together00:22 Why the Tribes Go Up: Worship and Thanksgiving00:31 Thrones of Judgment: The House of David00:37 Pray for Jerusalem’s Peace and Prosperity00:48 Personal Blessing & Closing: Seeking Jerusalem’s Good
