Now, moving on, verse 8 says, “Let me hear joy and gladness; let the bones that you have broken rejoice. Christians know David as a worshiper. Yes, he loved during times of success. When he won battles, he loved it. When he returned the Ark of the Covenant, he worshiped. However, David knew that worship took place not only in times of success, but also in times of sadness. David explicitly said, “Let the bones which you have broken rejoice.” » Namely, that my son, who will soon die, adores you. In other words, he desired to worship in times of judgment. It's difficult. This semester my grades will not be 4.0 like I hoped. When I realized that wasn't the case, it was hard to say, "Thank you God, I love you." This year I lost a friend in a random shooting in Lodi. It was difficult to worship God in the midst of this chaos. Now imagine how difficult it was for David to worship. He rejoiced at a time when he lost his son. Worship is and should be radical. To have this radicality, you must respect what David said before: you must be pure: to be pure is that his blood washes you. Therefore, since you are focusing on God and not your situation. You see that God has forgiven you. Zoe's message is one of radical worship. To have radical worship, you must first encounter radical forgiveness. David explains the type of forgiveness needed in verse 9: “Turn your face from my sins and blot out all my guilt. » When God accomplishes a task, he sees it through to the end. He is not like us: he does not feel resentment when he forgives. On the other hand, we usually still have some resentment. We say things like, “Forgive but never forget.” God, when He forgives, He forgets the sins you have committed. He does it... in the middle of a paper... the guilt would say to him: “What are you doing? You just murdered your friend and married his husbandless wife. You cannot worship. Unfortunately, today we all face this dilemma. During worship, guilt tries to bring us down. That's why we don't raise our hands. They are like chains that hold us back. This is true for everything about Christianity: God calls you to ministry, chains of guilt tell you you can't. It weighs you down saying, “Didn’t you yell at your parents last night? You can't tell your friend about Jesus. Therefore, David, a sinner, desired that God would remove the chains, remove the guilt; thus, he would be able to praise God. Zoe's message is a message of adoration, an innocent adoration. Many of you are guilty, but God can fully forgive you and remove that guilt. Today you will be able to worship again.
