Sermon Notes for: 6/15/2008
 “Recounting God's Wonderful Deeds” - Psalm 9
-- Jeffrey C. Evans --

I. Introduction
a. Just as we might rob God of His praise by not thanking Him as we see His goodness
displayed in creation, so too we can rob God of the praise due to Him in His works through history.
b. Context & Structure
i. Psalm 9 written by David and Psalm 10 appears to be another Psalmist’s continuation of Psalm 9.
ii. We need to remember that David was a man well acquainted with battle, the wicked,
and life and death situations. Through all of these times, David has seen the Lord’s wonderful hand
at work and now turns to praise Him.
