The Lord's Thundering Voice | Psalm 29 15d1d

In this episode of The Psalmcast, Pastor Ollie Bergh delves into the hauntingly majestic Psalm 29. Often described as a psalm of enthronement, this poetic masterpiece calls us to "ascribe to the Lord glory and strength" while exploring the sheer power of God's thundering voice. From its ancient origins—possibly influenced by Ugaritic poetry—to its vivid imagery of storms, lightning, and trembling mountains, Psalm 29 paints a picture of God's unmatched power over creation. Pastor Bergh unpacks the seven "lightning strikes" of the Lord's voice, which moves from the seas to the wilderness, shaking the very foundations of the earth. Discover how this psalm connects to the wilderness of Kadesh, the rebirth of God's people, and even the baptismal waters of the temple. Pastor Bergh also takes us to the Jordan River, where the voice of the Lord once thundered over Jesus' baptism, declaring him the beloved Son. us as we reflect on how this ancient psalm invites us to enthrone God over the waters of baptism and proclaim his glory in our own lives.
