A Prayer for Guarded Speech, Pure Worship, and Deliverance from Evil. Psalm 141 is David’s prayer for urgent, reverent access
Behold, I stand at the door, and knock if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
Jesus Christ.
John 1:17

The Blessing of Godly Unity Among Brethren.
Psalm 133 celebrates the beauty and spiritual goodness of God’s people dwelling together in true unity, not merely sharing space but sharing a God-given harmony. It pictures this unity as something precious, consecrated, and life-giving—like sacred oil that flows and like dew that refreshes. The chapter teaches that unity among God’s people is not man-made “peace at any price,” but a blessed reality that God Himself approves and sustains. It also implies a warning: where pride, rivalry, and division rule, the fragrance and refreshment of God’s blessing are hindered. The psalm ends by pointing to the Lord as the Source who commands blessing—showing that real unity is both God-honoring and God-granted.
Psalms 133:1 – 133:3
1 A Song of degrees of David. Behold, how good and how pleasant [it is] for brethren to dwell together in unity!
2 [It is] like the precious ointment upon the head, that ran down upon the beard, [even] Aaron’s beard: that went down to the skirts of his garments;
3 As the dew of Hermon, [and as the dew] that descended upon the mountains of Zion: for there the Lord commanded the blessing, [even] life for evermore.
STATEMENT OF FAITH
We Believe…
In one God, eternally existent in three persons – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit;
In the absolute deity and full humanity of our Lord Jesus Christ, God the Son, His virgin birth, His sinless life, His miracles, His substitutionary and atoning death for all through His shed blood, His bodily resurrection, His ascension to the right hand of the Father, and His personal return in power and glory to judge the living and the dead;
In the present ministry of the Holy Spirit, by whose indwelling the Christian is empowered to live a holy life, to witness and work for the Lord Jesus Christ;
In the divine inspiration of all 66 books of the Old and New Testaments as originally given, guaranteeing their infallibility, entire trustworthiness, and supreme authority in all matters of faith and conduct;
That all people are sinners and cannot save themselves. Salvation is received as a free gift of God’s grace, apart from works, through repentance and personal faith in the redemptive work of Christ and the regenerating power of the Holy Spirit;
In the bodily resurrection of both the saved and the lost, the eternal blessedness of the saved, and the eternal punishment of the lost;
In the spiritual unity of believers in our Lord Jesus Christ who are thus members of His Body, the Church, whose work is the worship of God, perfecting the saints, and evangelization of the world.
