Read Psalm Chapter 77
Key Verses: Psalm 77:11-15…
“A Psalm of Asaph”
1 I cry out to God; yes, I shout.
Oh, that God would listen to me!
2 When I was in deep trouble,
I searched for the Lord.
All night long I prayed, with hands lifted toward heaven,
but my soul was not comforted.
3 I think of God, and I moan,
overwhelmed with longing for His help.
4 You don’t let me sleep.
I am too distressed even to pray!
5 I think of the good old days,
long since ended,
6 when my nights were filled with joyful songs.
I search my soul and ponder the difference now.
7 Has the Lord rejected me forever?
Will He never again be kind to me?
8 Is His unfailing love gone forever?
Have His promises permanently failed?
9 Has God forgotten to be gracious?
Has He slammed the door on His compassion?
10 And I said, “This is my fate;
the Most High has turned His hand against me.”
11 But then I recall all You have done, O Lord;
I remember Your wonderful deeds of long ago.
12 They are constantly in my thoughts.
I cannot stop thinking about Your mighty works.
13 O God, Your ways are holy.
Is there any god as mighty as You?
14 You are the God of great wonders!
You demonstrate Your awesome power among the nations.
15 By Your strong arm, You redeemed Your people,
the descendants of Jacob and Joseph.
16 When the Red Sea saw You, O God,
its waters looked and trembled!
The sea quaked to its very depths.
17 The clouds poured down rain;
the thunder rumbled in the sky.
Your arrows of lightning flashed.
18 Your thunder roared from the whirlwind;
the lightning lit up the world!
The earth trembled and shook.
19 Your road led through the sea,
Your pathway through the mighty waters—
a pathway no one knew was there!
20 You led Your people along that road like a flock of sheep,
with Moses and Aaron as their shepherds.
PRAYER:
Heavenly Father, as I study the Scriptures, I am reminded again and again of all the wonderful things You did for Your people during the time of Moses. So, now I come to You with a grateful heart for the all the wonderful things You have done in my life! As I ponder the times I didn’t feel Your presence, it was not because You left me, it’s because I chose to turn my eyes away from You. SO, lead me Lord, just as You did Your people through the Red Sea, help me to see Your power being displayed in every part of my life. Thank You Father for loving me and never failing me in any way. I love You, Lord. I praise and honor Your name. Amen.
