Formed by the Psalms

Joy Comes in the Morning

Message Outline

Psalm 30:1–5 (NIV)

1 I will exalt you, Lord,

  for you lifted me out of the depths

  and did not let my enemies gloat over me.

2 Lord my God, I called to you for help,

  and you healed me.

3 You, Lord, brought me up from the realm of the dead;

  you spared me from going down to the pit.


4 Sing the praises of the Lord, you his faithful people;

  praise his holy name.

5 For his anger lasts only a moment,

  but his favor lasts a lifetime;

 weeping may stay for the night,

  but rejoicing comes in the morning.



Old Testament Story: 

Exodus 2:1-10

“…for you lifted me out of the depths”


  • A testimony of David


  • Old Testament motifs and the bigger story


  • Exodus 2:1-10


“She named him Moses, saying, “I drew him out of the water.”


  • Reflection: What stories, artwork, or historical contexts help me connect to Psalm 30 and the story of Moses?

“You, Lord, brought me up…”


  • The tension of the already-and-not-yet


  • Echoes of restoration and resurrection


  • Reflection: How do my own stories and memories shape my experience of Psalm 30?

“weeping may stay for the night,

   but rejoicing comes in the morning.”


  • A promised morning and a salvation song


  • Reflection: What’s your song?
