Turn quickly to God when lonely or discouraged (Psm 43:1-5). #TurnNowToGod #GodOurHope
MORNING WATCH NOTES:
[Psalm 43 is actually a part of Psalm 42 in Hebrew manuscripts. It is also a stand alone Psalm (note 42:5,11 & 43:5). The theme in both psalms are HOPE in times of discouragement and loneliness]
The Psalmist declares it is HOPE in God that assures, rescues and secures him in times of discouragement, loneliness and attacks from enemies.
His questions are sincere and thoughtful. They clarify his values and give him strength in times of grief. He looks to the light of God‘s truth, his source of joy. His HOPE is firmly in God. Lord, may my heart turn quickly to you in times of discouragement.
