Psalm 80:19b (NLT), "Only then will we be saved."
Friday... Yes, we will, yes we will!
I know, I know. We have so much ability, so much confidence but there is so much in our life where we need help and there is someone who really wants to help, in reality he wants to save us.
Yes, we travel along believing we can handle anything but we find we can't.
The Psalmist writes in 80:19 (NLT), "Turn us again to yourself, O Lord God of Heaven's Armies." It seems that God allows things into our lives that we just can't handle and we need to pray that prayer. "Turn us again to yourself, O God." It seems that too many times when we are in control we are headed away from God with this great level of confidence but then something happens and we feel all alone. We just don't know where we are and we for sure don't know where God is and we need help. We may even realize that we are headed in the wrong direction away from God. And that is not a good place to be.
So we need to pray, "Turn us again to yourself, O Lord God of Heaven's Armies. Make your face shine down upon us." And then it says, "Only then will we be saved." Somehow we need to get that into our heart and mind. "Only then will we be saved." "Only then will we be saved."
We were not created to do life on our own. We need God, we need God. We really do.
Maybe you are in the middle of a situation and you are on your own. So you need to stop and pray this prayer. "Turn us again to yourself, O Lord God of Heaven's Armies. Make your face shine down upon us." And in that time of pray we must realize that, "only then will we be saved."
Verse 18b says, "Revive us so we can call on your name once more." The Message says, "Bring life into our lungs so we can shout your name!" And "only then will we be saved." Yes, yes! #todaysbeginning
