AI::ON Psalm 70
As Christians, it is important to read and understand the Bible. This means not just skimming over the verses, but seeking out their true meaning and applying them to our lives. Today we will be exploring Psalm 70, a chapter of prayers that call on God for help and deliverance. Through this blog post, you’ll gain a better understanding of what this chapter is about and how it can be applied to your life today.
Psalm 70 begins with the psalmist pleading for God’s help and deliverance from his enemies. He expresses his trust in God by calling upon Him for aid and protection from those who seek to do him harm. The psalmist also talks about how he has been rejected by those who once loved him, yet still puts his faith in God’s power and mercy.
The next part of Psalm 70 speaks of how thankful the psalmist is for being delivered from danger. He praises God for His goodness and mercy shown upon him despite all the adversity he has faced. He also appeals to other believers to join him in praising God as they too have experienced His loving hand in their lives.
The last part of Psalm 70 shows us how we should respond after being saved by God’s grace – with gratitude, joy, and praise! The psalmist calls on all believers to make an offering of thanksgiving to God after being saved from danger or distress. He asks that these offerings be made with “a glad heart” as a heartfelt expression of appreciation towards God’s goodness in our lives.
Psalm 70 is an important reminder that we are never alone when facing difficult trials or tribulations in life – we can always put our trust in God’s power and mercy! It also reminds us that once we are saved by His grace, we must give Him thanks through acts of gratitude, joy, and praise! So the next time you feel overwhelmed or worried about something going on in your life remember this passage from Psalm 70 – “O Lord my God…hasten to save me; O Lord make haste to help me…Let them be ashamed & confounded…Let them turn back & be ashamed suddenly” (Psalm 70:1-2). With these words firmly planted within us let us strive each day to follow the teachings found within this powerful scripture!
