• Dumbrell speaks on Psalm 139. The first two-thirds of the Psalm hold three key movements. Firstly, verses 1-6 reflect upon the omniscience of God. Secondly, verses 7-12 reflect on God’s omnipresence. Finally, verses 13-18 reflect on God’s role as creator of all things. Verses 1-6 demonstrate David’s reflection of his experience and connection with God throughout his life. Following this, David reflects on the absurdity of fleeing from the presence of God. Throughout all experiences of life, God is present. As David’s creator, God knows all intimate details of his life. Within the 2nd half of the Psalm, David locates readers in his current challenging moment. David confronts the reality of living within a wicked world considering God’s sovereignty. Based on this confrontation, David is drawn back to God, seeking God for continued transformation and work to occur in his life.
