Description
Follow the way of the Psalmist: direct your eyes to the God, and your heart will find its exceeding joy.
For those who enjoyed Davis' previous works, this will not disappoint. Always accessible and relevant, anyone can join for this final leg of his pilgrimage with the Psalmist. Come ready to lift your eyes and leave with an uplifted heart.
Filled with the characteristic warm humour and biblical clarity that readers have come to expect, Dale Ralph Davis' exposition of Psalms 38-51 will help readers to get to know God's Word better. Davis loves the Psalms but, most of all, he loves the Psalmist's God: so too will you.
In this final instalment of his essential guide to the Psalms, trusted theologian Dale Ralph Davis leads readers through a careful study of Psalms 38-51 with clear application for daily life. Using his own translation, Davis sets out a verse-by-verse exposition and crystallises the Psalmist's message with cross-references to situate the passages in broader biblical context. With illustrations from history and personal experience, the truth comes alive.
An indispensable accompaniment to the Psalms. Suitable for use as a personal study guide or as a reference and teaching guide for facilitating small group study.

Reviews / Votes
"Dale Ralph Davis belongs to the rarest tribe of commentators: clearly communicating biblical truth with simultaneous theological depth and engaging devotional impact. The genuine love for Yahweh which oozes from these pages-not overly demonstrative but irresistibly contagious-enables readers to share both that same love and the Exceeding Joy it produces.
"Mike Biggs

All of God's Word is food for our souls and Dr. Davis is not afraid to give it to us. In 'My Exceeding Joy', this beloved expositor continues to show us in the Psalms how the Word is made fresh through the work and personality of an unashamed and approved workman.
"Brent Sadler
"
This expository pilgrimage through the Psalms continues to delight,
instruct, refresh and nourish our hearts. Above all else, Dr Davis's own delight in God, evident on every page, leads us to his altar and displays his love and glory in ways that make us stop and pray and praise.
"David Gibson
