Hearing God through His Word

Psalms Book Two mainly written
by David and the sons of Korah,
is similar to the book of Exodus.
Many of these psalms describe
the nation of Israel as ruined, and
then recovered. As God rescued
Israel, He will also rescue us.
We dont have to work out solutions
first; but we can go to God with
our problems & ask Him to help us.

On Monday, we learn from Ps 42
to Thirst For God and Hope In Him.
On Tuesday, we learn from Ps 46
to Be Still for God Is Our Refuge.
On Wed, we learn from Ps 48 that
the Lord My Saviour Leads Me.
On Thu, we learn from Ps 55 that
God Bears Burdens and Gives Rest.
On Friday, we learn from Ps 57 that
God has A Purpose and Will Fulfil It.
On Sat, we learn from Psalm 70/72
that God Helps Those In Need.

Let us humble ourselves and pray
and seek His face. Help us O God
be Christ’s disciples who Hear You:
For we Thirst for God, Hope in Him
and Be Still for God is Our Refuge.
For You Lord My Saviour Leads Us
as You has a Purpose & Will Fulfil It.
For You Bear Burdens & Gives Rest
as well as Help Those In Need.Amen

God Helps Those In Need

Backgrounder on Psalms 67-72:
David and Solomon show you how
praiseworthy is the great God
of Israel. God is worthy of praise
for His judgements (Psalm 67),
His compassion & provision (P68)
His attentiveness to the cry
of His children (Psalm 69/70),
His strength for the weak (P71) &
His sovereignty over nations (P72)

Lord, You Respond to Our Cries:
(God) will judge Your people
with righteousness, and
Your people with justice…
He will bring justice to the poor
of the people; He will save the
children of the needy (Ps 72:2-4).
May the king’s rule be refreshing
like spring rain on freshly cut grass,
like showers that water the earth.
May godly flourish during His reign
May He reign fr sea to sea (v6-8).
God will Deliver the Needy
who Cry out, the afflicted
who have no one to help.
He will spare the poor and
needy, and will save the souls
of the needy (Psa 72:12-13).
(For) I am poor and needy;
(so) Make Haste to me O God!
You are my help and Deliverer;
O God Do Not Delay (Ps 70:5).

Lord, thank You for You promise
that You God Hears the person
who simply Cries out to You.
For You God knows every need
even before we utter them to You.
Comforting that the simple but
heartfelt cry: Help! may be the
prayer that brings the answer.
For You Lord will spare the needy
save the souls of the needy. Amen.

Lord, I am in need of Your aid;
help me before my troubles
overwhelm and swallow me up.
You are my helper and Deliverer;
and I depend on You and not
on my own wisdom or strength.
For it’s when one depends fully
on You Lord that one experiences
Your help. So help me to make my
first response rather than making
You God as the last resort. Amen.

Jesus Shall Reign where’er the sun
Does his successive journeys run;
His kingdom spread from shore to
shore tell moons shall wane no more
People & realms of ev’ry tongue
Dwell on His love with sweetest song
The weary find eternal rest,
And the sons of want are blest.
Let every creature rise and bring
His grateful honors to our King;
Angels descend with songs again,
And earth repeat the loud amen!
