Psalm 40 - Set apart by God



I waited patiently for the Lord;
And He inclined to me, And heard my cry.

Out of the miry clay, And set my feet upon a rock,
And established my steps.

Psalm 40 - Faith Persevering in Trial
To the Chief Musician. A Psalm of David.
I waited patiently for the Lord;
And He inclined to me,
And heard my cry.
2 He also brought me up out of a horrible pit,
Out of the miry clay,
And set my feet upon a rock,
And established my steps.
3 He has put a new song in my mouth—
Praise to our God;
Many will see it and fear,
And will trust in the Lord.

40 - Probation, Trial or Transition
The Israelites wandered for 40 years (Deut. 8:2-5). Moses was on the mount for 40 days (Exodus 24:18); 40 days of Jonah and Nineveh (Jonah 3:4). Jesus was tempted for 40 days (Matt. 4:2).
We have covered the Hebrew letter Mem whose numeric value is 40.
As each Hebrew letter has a number value it also has a meaning symbolized by its ancient pictograph. Mem is not only the number 40 but it is also “water” as you can see from the above image. Hebrew4Christians is a good resource for more on Mem. 
Water is 40, 40 days and nights it rained in Noah’s flood and the earth transitioned, or experienced a “trial/probation.” - Genesis 7
40 weeks of gestation, probation, transition into the world from the womb, before “the water breaks” and the child is born.
There were 8 periods of 40 days in scripture:
Forty days Moses was in the mount to receive the Law, Exo 24:18.
Forty days Moses was in the mount after the sin of the Golden Calf, Deut 9:18,25.
Forty days of the spies, issuing in the penal sentence of the 40 years, Num 13:26, 14:34.
Forty days of Elijah in Horeb, 1 Kings 19:8.
Forty days of Jonah and Nineveh, Jonah 3:4.
Forty days Ezekiel lay on his right side to symbolize the 40 years of Judah’s transgression.*
Forty days Jesus was tempted of the Devil, Matt 4:2.
Forty days Jesus was seen of His disciples, speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God, Acts 1:3.
 
 
Water is 40 - 40 days and nights it rained in Noah’s flood 
and the earth transitioned, or experienced a “trial/probation.”
 - Genesis 7
 And as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be also in the days of the Son of Man: 
Luke 17:26


Psalm 119:97-104 - מ MEM

97 Oh, how I love Your law!
It is my meditation all the day.
98 You, through Your commandments, make me wiser than my enemies;
For they are ever with me.
99 I have more understanding than all my teachers,
For Your testimonies are my meditation.
100 I understand more than the [a]ancients,
Because I keep Your precepts.
101 I have restrained my feet from every evil way,
That I may keep Your word.
102 I have not departed from Your judgments,
For You Yourself have taught me.
103 How sweet are Your words to my taste,
Sweeter than honey to my mouth!
104 Through Your precepts I get understanding;
Therefore I hate every false way.

Psalm 119 - It is fitting that the greatest tribute to the Word of God is IN the Word of God, itself, and is in the longest chapter of the Word of God! This Psalm has no author’s name, historical incident, or other distraction from its theme. It is divided into 22 sections (one for every letter in the Hebrew alphabet), each consisting of 8 lines, each line beginning with the alphabet letter of that section (aleph is the first letter of each line under the aleph section, for instance).

Psalm 119 study – Nurturing Life blog



“At sunset, the people brought to Jesus all who had various kinds of sickness, and laying his hands on each one, he healed them. 41 Moreover, demons came out of many people, shouting, “You are the Son of God!” But he rebuked them and would not allow them to speak, because they knew he was the Messiah.”



The Month of Elul begins the 40 days of preparation for the High Holy Days 
leading to the Day of Atonement. This is a time of fasting, prayer and repentance to ready one’s self for the 
Day of Atonement (fulfilled in Christ's sacrifice/covering for our sins).

40 days of Teshuvah
Repentance (Hebrew: תשובה‎, literally, "return", pronounced tshuva or teshuva)

40th Anniversary of Mt. St. Helens Eruption –March rumblings, quakes –May 18, 1980 Explosion

March 22, 1980 - Officials initially downplayed the tremors’ significance, noting that there were no reports of damage and “earthquakes are common in that area.” The headline didn’t seem too alarming: “Mount St. Helens Area is Rattled.” (Spokane Daily Chronicle archives)
An earthquake registering 4.1 on the Richter scale shook the seemingly inactive volcano, but officials downplayed the significance, noting that there were no reports of damage and “earthquakes are common in that area.” Yet the tremors continued the next few days. On March 24, the Chronicle ran a headline that asked, “Mount St. Helens to Spout?”
“Mount St. Helens, a lady with a 123-year-old tummyache, erupted with a gigantic volcanic burp Thursday, a sound like a sonic boom heard 45 miles away.”
A Spokane preacher called it “a revelation of God’s will.”

50 – Jubilee – Pentecost
The Jubilee (Hebrewיובל yōḇel; Yiddish: yoyvl) is the year at the end of seven cycles of shmita (Sabbatical years) and, according to Biblical regulations, had a special impact on the ownership and management of land in the Land of Israel. According to the Book of Leviticus, Hebrew slaves and prisoners would be freed, debts would be forgiven, and the mercies of God would be particularly manifest.
Yovel, Shofar and Freedom
"...on Yom-Kippur, you are to sound a blast on the shofar; you are to sound the shofar all through your land; and you are to consecrate the fiftieth year, proclaiming freedom throughout the land to all its inhabitants. It will be a yovel for you;" Leviticus 25:9.10


100 Years - Psalm 100 / 1920s - 100-150+ Years
Psalm 100:4 - Enter His gates with thanksgiving
and His courts with praise;
2020 Hebrew - hatstsalah = deliverance - Esther 4:14 (only once in the bible)
May we have 20/20 vision to see the signs God has given us
to seek him with all our heart and trust in Him alone.


Hosanna!
