*Ps 90:10-17* 
10  As for the days of our life, they contain seventy years, or if due to strength, eighty years, yet their pride is but labor and sorrow; for soon it is gone and we fly away.
11  Who understands the power of Thine anger, and Thy fury, according to the fear that is due Thee?
12  So teach us to number our days, that we may present to Thee a heart of wisdom.
13  Do return, O LORD; how long will it be?
And be sorry for Thy servants.
14  O satisfy us in the morning with Thy lovingkindness, that we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
15  Make us glad according to the days Thou hast afflicted us, and the years we have seen evil.
16  Let Thy work appear to Thy servants, and Thy majesty to their children.
17  And let the favor of the Lord our God be upon us; and do confirm for us the work of our hands; yes, confirm the work of our hands.
*Introduction*
*A.* *Psalm 90 is a very unique psalm.*
For example, no statement in this psalm is taken from any other psalm.
As a study of the Book of Psalms will show, the psalms repeat themselves; certain thoughts found in one psalm are found, almost word-for-word, in other psalms.
Furthermore, it has no affinity with any of the other psalms, meaning that it does not cover any similar circumstances.
It does have, however, similarity and affinity with one chapter that Moses wrote elsewhere: Deuteronomy 33, another poetic song.
If you compare Deuteronomy 33 with Psalm 90, you will find several elements of comparison, similarity, and affinity.
For example, Deuteronomy 33:1 begins with the phrase: /Moses the man of God./
This is the same as the beginning of the superscription here in Psalm 90.
Moses is the author of this one psalm as well as the five books of Moses.
Because he is the writer of this psalm, we know that this is the oldest of the one hundred fifty psalms.
The others were written by men who lived much later than Moses.
*B.
*     *The Timing and Historical Background*
As the context shows, Moses wrote this psalm at the end of the forty years of Wilderness Wanderings.
By the time, he wrote this psalm, the Exodus Generation had passed away; the judgment of the sin at Kadesh Barnea had run its course; and the Wilderness Generation is soon to enter the Land.
So this psalm is written from the background of the sin of Kadesh Barnea.

*Presentation - How to Make Your Life Count*
·           Following verses give 7 assurances that when life is over that we've numbered our days correctly--7 things to focus on; all begin with the letter "P"
  
*1.*
*First "P"* = *the PROMISE of the Lord's return*
/Do return, O Lord; how long will it be?
And be sorry for Thy servants./
·           I'm convinced that any lasting value in life has to begin with a personal relationship with Jesus Christ
·           If have that relationship, we are to be looking for His imminent return for His believers
 
*2 Pet 3:10-15*
10  But the day of the Lord will come like a thief, in which the heavens will pass away with a roar and the elements will be destroyed with intense heat, and the earth and its works will be burned up.
11  Since all these things are to be destroyed in this way, what sort of people ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness,
12  looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, on account of which the heavens will be destroyed by burning, and the elements will melt with intense heat!
13  But according to His promise we are looking for new heavens and a new earth, in which righteousness dwells.
14  Therefore, beloved, since you look for these things, be diligent to be found by Him in peace, spotless and blameless,
15  and regard the patience of our Lord to be salvation; just as also our beloved brother Paul, according to the wisdom given him, wrote to you,
 
·           Live each day as if our last, asking that His priorities be accomplished in our life
 
*2.*
*Second "P"* is Christ's *Presence*
/O satisfy us in the morning with Thy lovingkindness, That we may sing for joy and be glad all our days.
/
*Heb 13:5-6* -  Let your character be free from the love of money, being content with what you have; for He Himself has said, "I will never desert you, nor will I ever forsake you,"
6    so that we confidently say, "The Lord is my helper, I will not be afraid.
What shall man do to me?"
*Rom 5:5* - and hope does not disappoint, because the love of God has been poured out within our hearts through the Holy Spirit who was given to us.
(NAS)
*1 Cor 6:19* -Or do you not know that your body is a temple of the Holy Spirit who is in you, whom you have from God, and that you are not your own? (NAS)
*Eph 1:13* - In Him, you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation-- having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise,
*2 Tim 1:14* - Guard, through the Holy Spirit who dwells in us, the treasure which has been entrusted to {you.}
 
*3.*
*Third "P"* is to have the *proper Perspective on problems*
/ Make us glad according to the days Thou hast afflicted us, And the years we have seen evil./
*James 1:2-12*
2    Consider it all joy, my brethren, when you encounter various trials,
3    knowing that the testing of your faith produces endurance.
4 And let endurance have its perfect result, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
5    But if any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all men generously and without reproach, and it will be given to him.
6    But let him ask in faith without any doubting, for the one who doubts is like the surf of the sea driven and tossed by the wind.
7    For let not that man expect that he will receive anything from the Lord,
8    being a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
9    But let the brother of humble circumstances glory in his high position;
10  and let the rich man glory in his humiliation, because like flowering grass he will pass away.
11  For the sun rises with a scorching wind, and withers the grass; and its flower falls off, and the beauty of its appearance is destroyed; so too the rich man in the midst of his pursuits will fade away.
12  Blessed is a man who perseveres under trial; for once he has been approved, he will receive the crown of life, which the Lord has promised to those who love Him.
