Prayers of Hope

This week' on Prayers of Hope will be presenting part 2 of a 2 part programme on analysing Psalms 69: 19-36. In part 1 we witnessed the distress that David was experiencing when he was prosecuted for his faith and zeal for God. We also saw that despite persecution David drew closer to his God and prayed more earnestly. He was confident that his prayer would be heard, KJV Psalms 69:16 Hear me, O LORD; for thy lovingkindness is good: turn unto me according to the multitude of thy tender mercies.

In part 2 we now see the Prophetic accounts of the suffering which Jesus Christ our LORD would be subjected to, KJV Psalms 69:20-21 Reproach hath broken My heart; and I am full of heaviness: and I looked for some to take pity, but there was none; and for comforters, but I found none. They gave Me also gall for My meat; and in My thirst they gave Me vinegar to drink.

We are poignantly reminded that we have a Saviour who understands human suffering and He is acquainted with grief and sorrow. Therefore He stays close to us in our most distressing times, carrying us gently, so we like the Psalmist can talk to Him, KJV Psalms 69:29-30 But I am poor and sorrowful: let Thy salvation, O God, set me up on high. I will praise the Name of God with a song, and will magnify Him with thanksgiving.

Let us truely learn to praise our God when we are going through the storms in our lives. Join us on Prayers of Hope and attend a master class from David the Psalmist on how to be strengthened by the joy of the LORD.

This week on Prayers of Hope we will begin part 1 of a 2 part programme on analysing Psalms 69. In part 1 we will analyse this Prayer of Sorrow from verses 1-18.
David makes a mournful plea to God due to the overwhelming effect of the grief and torment that he is experiencing. He cries, KJV Psalms 69:2-3 I sink in deep mire, where there is no standing: I am come into deep waters, where the floods overflow me. I am weary of my crying: my throat is dried: mine eyes fail while I wait for my God.
David is a innocent victim of persecution due to his faith in God, KJV Psalms 69:9 For the zeal of Thine house hath eaten me up; and the reproaches of them that reproached Thee are fallen upon me. But David holds on to his conviction in the loving character of his God despite his distressing predicament, KJV Psalms 69:13 But as for me, my prayer is unto Thee, O LORD, in an acceptable time: O God, in the multitude of Thy mercy hear me, in the truth of Thy salvation.
Please join us as we analyse David's Prayer of Hope, receive strength and encouragement as you make it your very own heart's cry.

This joyful Psalm summons the inhabitants of the earth to rejoice in God the Sovereign Ruler of the world. The rationale for summoning such Rejoicing is due to the Aaronic Blessing fouud in Numbers 6:24-26, which God lovingly shines upon His people. Therefore in response to God's illuminating love His people joyfully declare, KJV Psalms 67:3-4 Let the people praise Thee, O God; let all the people praise Thee.

David is the composter of this very sensitive Psalm which was penned while he hid himself from the murderous intent of king Saul.

Here the joy, praise, thanksgiving and the desire for communication with God is exquisitely expressed; KJV Psalms 63:1 O God, Thou art my God; early will I seek Thee: my soul thirsteth for Thee, my flesh longeth for Thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is; 3 Because Thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise Thee. This is a mere sample of the beauty of the language and imagery which David employs to convey his love for God in the 11 verses of this Prayer

This Psalm was composed by David when he was under house surveillance by king Saul’s assassins. Sensing his impeding doom he cries out to God for rescue and protection, KJV Psalms 59:1 Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me.

In the majority of the 17 verses which this Psalm is comprised of David describes the evil actions of his enemies but by the end of the Psalm he turns his attention away from evil men to behold his God.

These thoughts of God transforms his complaints into Praises,
KJV Psalms 59:16 But I will sing of Thy power; yea, I will sing aloud of Thy mercy in the morning: for Thou hast been my defence and refuge in the day of my trouble.
