Psalm 13 | Sermon Resources | 13 July 2025
Summary
Pastor Billy begins a new sermon series this week focused on praying through the Psalms. Each week we will look at a different psalm to see what it teaches us about how to pray. We begin with Psalm 13 which is a psalm of lament. We see David surrendering his tears to the Lord in prayer and in the end being filled with abundant joy.
