What does God need from us? And what does He want from us? This week on The Bible Study Hour, we’re reminded in Psalm 50 that our God is a God of justice. He sees our hearts, and He knows our intentions. How, then, should we approach Him in prayer and worship? Where should our thoughts and attitudes be focused?

You’re probably familiar with the old saying: “You can’t take it with you when you go.” This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’ll continue our study of the Psalms with Psalm 49. This psalm reminds us that our bodies are mortal--we will all eventually meet with death. So how should such a sobering reminder affect the way we live, and the choices we make?

The Lord Almighty is with us. And this week on The Bible Study Hour, we’ll take a closer look at that in what may be a familiar psalm, psalm 46. As Christians, we often hear that God is our refuge and our strength. But what do those words really mean? We can say that we trust God at all times and in all circumstances, but what does that look like when the hard times come?

Here comes the bride! This week on The Bible Study Hour with Dr. James Boice, we’re all invited to a splendid royal wedding. Psalm 45 is full of poetic imagery and deeper meaning, as a noble king comes for his waiting bride. You can probably guess whom the king and his bride represent here. But what can this unique psalm teach us about our future, as well as our past? If we’re to be ready to spend forever with Him, we must look beyond earthly kings, beyond the world around us, and fix our eyes on the coming King, Jesus Christ.
