I have posted some sermons that I have preached in the Psalms while preaching itinerantly between churches in 2008. They are included below the News in Focus audio of Pastor Hammack's for this Fox News article concerning Pastor Wiley Drake's dark interpretation of the Imprecatory Psalms.

Here are some perspectives to help us understand Imprecatory Psalms:

1. They are understood as inspired and prophetic and must be interpreted in the light of the whole counsel of God, particularly as it relates to "Christ, and Him crucified" (1 Cor 2:2).

2. As prophetic utterances, these Psalms express the wrath that we deserved when we were unsaved, unregenerate sinners who hated Light, loved darkness, and were the enemies of God (Jn 3:19-20; Rom 5:10; Rom 8:7).

3. Because Jesus Christ is the substitutionary Sacrifice for the wrath that we so rightly deserve, God the Father, with willing obedience from the Son to do so through the eternal covenant, and witnessed and sealed by the Holy Spirit, poured out His holy and just wrath upon Jesus Christ, in His death upon Calvary's Tree, He fullfilled the prophetic uttereances of the Law, the Prophets, and the Imprecatory Psalms (Gen 3:15; Isa 53; Psa 7, 35, 55, 58, 59, 69, 79, 109, 137, 139; Gal 3:13; 2 Cor 5:21; et al).

4. Because we have been forgiven of sins through His shed blood, we have been declared righteous by Christ's imputed righteousness, because we have been reconciled to God Almighty through Christ, and have had the wrath for disobedience removed through Christ's Atoning Sacrifice, we have great reason to rejoice that those utterances made in the Psalms have been removed far from us. Our sins which were many, are forgiven, so that we may love much (Lk 7:47).

5. Since salvation was paid by the priceless, precious blood of Jesus Christ, and because His Sacrifice is of such infinite worth and eternal preeminence, through that revelation, as well as the revelation of the height, length, depths, and breadth of wrath that we have been redeemed from, &etc., how could we possibly think that we deserve to judge with finality the vengence that Scripture says belongs to the LORD, and to Him alone? (Deut 32:35; Rom 12:18-21).

6.Therefore, also through the revelation of salvation from the judgment upon the enemies of God, we, by the grace of God, through the power of the Holy Spirit, upon the authority of God's Word, can submit and surrender to the commandments of God, such as "love your enemies, bless them that curse you, and pray for them which despitefully use you, and persecute you," because "His commandments are not grievous" (Matt 5:44; 1 Jn 5:3).
