Foundational Building Block

WHO?
Psalm 139 is attributed to David, Israel’s greatest king. David is believed to have authored 73 of the 150 Psalms in the Bible. He was a gifted poet and songwriter, often declaring his praise for God in a variety of ways throughout the Psalms.

WHAT?
Psalm 139 talks about God’s omnipresence and omnipotence—He is everywhere and knows everything. The author realizes there is no hiding from God and invites Him to search his heart, showing him where He wants to change him.

WHERE?
In Psalm 139 the where is everywhere! God is everywhere in space, in the highest heavens and the lowest depths. He is also everywhere with us in time: when we are growing in the womb, and He is there with us on our very last day. God is ever-present in our lives.

WHEN?
The psalms were written over hundreds of years—from the time of Moses to after the exile from Babylon. Psalm 139, which is attributed to David, would probably have been written sometime in the late 900s BC.

WHY?
This psalm recognizes that God knows us intimately. He created us just as He wanted us to be, and His care for us extends from the womb to death. Therefore, we ask God to search us, refine us, and lead us in His everlasting way.

Personal connection comes through honesty. The psalmists understood this better than anyone. From the pages of the book of Psalms leap lament and joy, anger and mercy— honest cries to the God who hears us and knows us. During this series, you and the kids you lead will discover more from the Psalms about the unchanging character of God—the loving, caring, faithful shepherd—and your identity as His kids, wonderfully and purposefully created. Together you’ll come to God like the psalmists of old, singing, shouting, and crying out your prayers and praises to the one who is worthy!
