Psalm 124
When we are on the other side of this pandemic and the Lord has given us victory, we will sing this Psalm: “If it had not been the Lord who was on our side…”this plague would have destroyed us. But we do have the Lord on our side, Hallelujah! And He will pull us out of this mess.
Psalm 125
Verse 5 says, “As for such as turn aside to their crooked ways, the Lord shall lead them away, with the workers of iniquity.”
The bible often refers to the punishment of iniquity. Our God is a JUST God and punishes inequality. This gives me hope for our nation. We are going through another civil rights movement (Black Lives Matter) and the Lord is on the side of justice and equality. Again, He will pull His people through this and He will “do good to those who are upright in their hearts.” (verse 4) and “lead away the WORKERS of iniquity” (verse 5). I pray that when its time for God to judge my heart that He would see it as an upright heart and I pray that they Holy Spirit lead me away from paths that might make me a worker of iniquity.
Psalm 126
This is such a hopeful passage. It says that when we cry, our tears are seeds that will bloom into joy. Hallelujah!
