Truth:
1. The Psalms are fully Christ-centered. Christ is not only the centrality but also the universality of the Psalms.
2. The first 21 verses of Psa. 22 cover the death of Christ, the crucifixion of Christ, and the last 10 verses cover His resurrection.
3. His death is for redeeming, and His resurrection is for producing the church.
4. On the one hand, it was man crucifying the Lord Jesus, killing Him, but eventually it was God who Him to death.
5. The disciples became God's sons in Christ's resurrection.
6. Through His resurrection, we were regenerated.
7. "My brothers" became the church, the assembly. The Lord's brothers constitute the church.
8. The church is the reality of the kingdom and a precursor of the manifestation of the kingdom.
Life experience/Application:
1. If you are weak or down, you can read one psalm a number of times with some amount of prayer. Then you will be nourished. Every psalm can be a spiritual supply to us.
2. God surely hears our prayers, but many times He does not answer our prayers which are not according to His desire, His economy, His plan.
