"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
Today's Blog Title: "The Prayer of a Puzzled People"
Today's Scripture Reading" Psalm 44:1-26
Today's Key Verse: Psalm 44:25,26 "For our soul is bowed down to the dust; Our body clings to the ground. Arise for our help, and redeem us for Your mercies sake."
Psalm 44 is lament of the community, a collective sigh of the people of Israel for God to help them in a time of great national stress. The psalm also presents an occasion for a rehearsal of god's great deeds in the Exodus, the major saving action of God in the old Testament.
God is the source of Israel's victories over her enemies. Yet the nation experiences defeat. Defeat would have been understandable if Israel had denied God, but at this time God's people have been faithful to Him and have kept His law. All God's puzzled people can do as they cry out, "WHY" is urge the Lord to act for them soon.
This psalm has five parts: (1) a rehearsal of God's deliverance of Israel in the past (verses 1-3); (2) a statement of confidence in God the great King (verses 4-8); (3) a lament of the people (verses 9-12); (4) a protect of innocence of the people (verses 13-22); (5) a petition of the people (verses 23-26).
Today's Hymn: "Christ Receiveth Sinful Men" (verse 1)
Sinners Jesus will receive, sound this word of grace to all
Who the heavenly pathway leave, all who linger, all who fall
Sing it o'er and over again, Christ receiveth sinful men
Make the message clear and plain, Christ receiveth sinful men
Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit How thankful we are that Jesus does receive the sinful men and women who come to Him with true repentance of their sins. How thankful we are that the second we ask for forgiveness Jesus keeps His promise and sends the Holy Spirit to lead, guide and teach us. May we in our daily lives make the message clear and plain that Jesus does indeed receive sinful men and women.
Amen

Have a God Filled and Spirit Led Day. Go in Peace and serve the Lord with Gladness. Love God More today and always remember that when you have a spiritual dilemma in your life and you yell out, "I CAN'T", God Whispers to you, "BUT I CAN".
Yours in Christ,
