I call to remembrance my song in the night

I cried out to the Lord with my voice-to God with my voice and he gave ear to me
In the day of my trouble, I sought the Lord; my hand was stretched out in the night without ceasing, my soul refused to be comforted
I remembered God, and was troubled;
I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed
You hold my eyelids open; I am so troubled I cannot speak
I have considered the days of old,
The years of ancient times
I call to remembrance my song in the night;
I meditate within my heart and my spirit makes diligent search
Will the Lord cast off forever?
Will He be favourable no more?
Has His mercy ceased forever?
Has His promise failed forevermore?
Has God forgotten to be gracious?
Has He in anger shut up His tender mercies?

Psalm 77:1-9



Your way Oh Lord is in the sanctuary



And I said this is my anguish; but I will remember the years of the right hand of the Most High
I will remember the Works of the Lord,
Surely I will remember the works of old
I will also meditate on your work and talk of your deeds.
Your way Oh Lord is in the sanctuary
Who is so great a God as our God?

Psalm 77: 10-13

The waters saw You


You are the God who does wonders;
You declared your strength among the peoples
You have with your arm redeemed your people,
The sons of Jacob and Joseph
The waters saw You
You they were afraid; the depths also trembled

Psalm 77 :14-16



The lightnings lit up the world
The clouds poured out water; the skies sent out a sound,
Your arrows also flashed about, the voice of your thunder was in the whirlwind,
The lightnings lit up the world, the earth trembled and shook
Psalm 77:17-19


Your path is in the great waters

Your way was in the sea,
Your path in the great waters
And your foot steps were not known

Psalm 77: 20


Leadership
You led your people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron

But let the righteous be joyful

Let God rise up, let his enemies be scattered; let those who hate him flee before him. As smoke is driven away, so drive them away; as wax melts before the fire, let the wicked perish before God. But let the righteous be joyful; let them exult before God; let them be jubilant with joy. Sing to God, sing praises to his name; lift up a song to him who rides upon the clouds— his name is the LORD— be exultant before him. Psalm 68 ; 1-4 God gives the desolate a home to live in Father of orphans and protector of widows is God in his holy habitation. God gives the desolate a home to live in; he leads out the prisoners to prosperity, but the rebellious live in a parched land. Psalm 68: 5-6 The earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness, Selah the earth quaked, the heavens poured down rain at the presence of God, the God of Sinai, at the presence of God, the God of Israel. Psalm 68: 7-8 O God, you showered abro

Depend On God’s Unmerited Favor, Not Favoritism

Meditate On And the patriarchs, becoming envious, sold Joseph into Egypt. But God was with him and delivered him out of all his troubles, and gave him favor and wisdom in the presence of Pharaoh, king of Egypt; and he made him governor over Egypt and all his house. Acts 7:9–10 There is a significant difference between God’s unmerited favor and favoritism . God’s unmerited favor is based entirely on Jesus’ merit, and we received it through His finished work at the cross. We did nothing to deserve His favor. It is completely unmerited. Favoritism, however, stinks of self-effort. Individuals who rely on favoritism for promotion resort to apple-polishing, office politics, manipulative tactics, backstabbing and all kinds of compromises just to get what they want. God has a higher and better way for you. It hurts Him to see His precious children groveling like sycophants just to get ahead in life. If a door closes, so be it! Believe with full confidence
