Listen "PSALM 71 A Prayer for help."
Episode Synopsis
CONSIDER PSALM 71:5: "For you have been my hope, O Sovereign Lord, my confidence since my youth." Hope in the Scripture is hope in a sure thing. It is not wishful thinking. Our hope is in the sure and steady sovereign Lord, in whom there is no shadow due to change. Therefore, we can have confidence that he will rescue us.
I rewrote this in the book as a prayer for my family.
"In you oh Lord we have taken refuge.
Let my family never be put to shame. Rescue us and deliver us. Give the command to save us, our rock and fortress. Be not far from us. But as for our family we will always have hope. Help us to praise you more and more. Give the command to save us. Let us tell of your righteousness, of your salvation all day long, though we know not its measure. We will proclaim your righteousness, yours alone."
