## Resource

In this episode, Dave Jenkins walks through Psalm 81, highlighting the connection between joyful worship and obedient faith. This psalm reflects on God's past deliverance of Israel while confronting the danger of hardened hearts. It calls God's people to listen to His voice, reject idols, and trust Him fully. Psalm 81 ultimately points to Christ, the perfect Deliverer who obeyed where His people failed and now calls His sheep to hear His voice. Main takeaway: True joy is found in hearing and obeying the Lord. For more from Reading the Bible Daily with Dave, visit: https://servantsofgrace.org/reading-the-bible-daily-with-dave/
