Excuse my attempt to involve speak about my experience. But I have been speaking the Psalms word for word by memory for 40 yrs I still speak all the Psalms having memorized the whole book.
In my 40 yrs the reaction from well respected pastos,theologians has been eye opening. These are the people who are very dogmatic that every word is God breathed. I have been talked about, censored, considered a threat,told that the curses would come to me ,been kicked out of a church,and is routinely resisted when I seek employment. Now this is simply because I pray the Psalms word for word.
The Psalms are my second language. I know exactly how the Psalmist uses words, their intent and the Psalmist approach to God. So when I explain how often he uses the curses it's like having leprosy. But having memorized most of the NT Proverbs(try memorizing Proverbs after chapt. 10I . the verses have no connection) and Psalms I have respect for the words . I ask any how we can teach that every word of God is inspired and then treat me as if I was cursed. It has shown me how trustworthy man is.
