"Greetings Everyone in the Name of Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ"
Today's Blog Title: "A Prayer for Deliverance"
Today's Scripture Reading: Psalm 69:1-36
Today's Key Verses: Psalm 69:29,30 "But I am poor and sorrowful; Let Your salvation, O God, set me up on high. I will praise the name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving."
Psalm 69, a song of lament, is more specifically a protest of innocence. This highly messianic psalm presents a remarkable description of the suffering of Jesus Christ. Psalm 22 describes Jesus' physical suffering, Psalm 69 focuses more on His emotional and spiritual suffering. Like psalm 22 this psalm was written about a thousand years before the events it describes. Both psalms begin with the sufferings of David but have their full meaning in the suffering of Jesus.
In this psalm David is surrounded by enemies eager to destroy him, and David reminds God that though he is a sinner he is suffering for the Lord's sake. David begs God to rescue him and shares his despair. He asks the Lord to cause his enemies downfall and expresses his confidence that God will act.
This psalm has seven parts: (1) a cry for deliverance that expresses the psalmist weariness (verses 1-3); (2) a description of the psalmist enemies (verse 4); (3) a lament that expresses the psalmist sense of alienation (verses 5-12); (4) a cry for deliverance from the mire (verses 13-18); (5) a lament that expresses the psalmist's reproach (verses 19-21); (6) a petition for God to bring His judgment on the wicked (verses 22-28); (7) a determination to praise the Lord (verses 29-36).
Today's Hymn: "How Firm A Foundation" (verse 2)
In every condition, in sickness, in health;
In poverty's vale, or abounding in wealth;
At home and abroad, on the land on the sea,
As thy days may demand, shall thy strength ever be
Heaven Father Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit How we thank you that when we are sinking beneath the problems and stress of life, that You reach Your loving and strong arm to us and pull us out from beneath those waves of doubt, worry and stress. Holy Spirit Thank You for keeping our eyes focused on Jesus and on the Cross of Calvary
Amen
