Psalm
25 – A Plea for Mercy and Deliverance
The
time will come when the remnant of Israel will find themselves in a position
where there is no one upon whom they can depend, but God. And it is good for us
to come to that place also.
There
are two ways a man can go. He can go God’s way or his own way. God gives us a
choice. We can walk in the path of our choosing. “There is a way which seems
right unto man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Proverbs 14:12.
What a glorious thing it is to be able to call out to God and ask Him to show
us the way we should go.
What
was good for the saints of the past and will be good for the saints of the
future is also good for us. God is not yet through with His people.
God
is rich in both goodness and mercy and there will be some left over for you and
me.
God
forgives us for Christ’s sake, never for our sake. You and I do not merit
forgiveness. We know that God forgave David; and, if we trust in the Lord, He
will forgive us too.
Many
of us should forget about some of the questions we have and simply put our hand
in His and walk with Him.
All
of us who are God’s children have trouble during our lifetimes. This is a
prayer for us. O God, deliver us out of all our troubles.
‘It
came to pass,’ and I thank God that my troubles came to pass, and they did not
come to stay.
The
primary interpretation is for the nation Israel, but we certainly can also pray
this prayer for ourselves.
Please
read the chapter listed so that you can understand God’s Word better.
