God will deliver you
Psalm 50:1-15
Are you facing trouble in your life?
‘God, the Lord, speaks and summons the earth from the rising of the sun to the place where it sets’ (v.1)
He owns everything. We may fight and struggle for our little corner and our possessions but, in the end, God owns it all: ‘Every animal of the forest is mine, and the cattle on a thousand hills’ (v.10).
He is not dependent on human beings: ‘If I were hungry I would not tell you, for the world is mine, and all that is in it’ (v.12).
Nevertheless, he graciously gives you a part to play.
Thank God Sacrifice thank-offerings to God (v.14a).
Call on God Call upon me in the day of trouble (v.15a).
Honor God I will deliver you, and you will honor me (v.15b).
It is amazing to look back and see how often his gracious hand has delivered.
