The Works of God, Questions

Questions, Questions, and many more Questions walk through our life and especially in these days of great changes in our society. Will America survive the total lack of respect for God’s Instructions? And then there are the troubles that haunt us in our lives. Do we find ourselves communing with the Lord only when we are in stress? When the trials are of great devastation do we wonder where God is? What about His Works in the earth that is, in the heart and the welfare of mankind? What goes on in our Spirit as we face difficulties? The Psalmist [77] asked these questions. God is so faithful to guide us in His Word. We see the difficulties of mankind over and over again. Job had many questions, as did his friends who questioned him. Have you ever been questioned about your belief in God or in the things of the Holy Spirit? We find answers in God’s Word. The Psalmist here begins to complain as he remembers God in his trouble. He says “I was troubled: I complained and my spirit was overwhelmed,” and then he pauses with a Selah.”  Perhaps he gave some depth of thought to his trouble and sought to encourage himself with “I call to remembrance my song in the night:” he began to commune with his own heart and his spirit made diligent search. In the time of Questions, we might just do that: Commune with our heart and search our spirit. There is never a doubt, God is for us, He will never leave us, we need only to seek Him with a sincere heart and He will bring us forth triumphantly! Pray, Commune with Him, and Search for Him in the crisis, He will always be found in His Word. The Psalmist asked, “Is His Mercy clean gone forever?” He soon responded: “This is my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the Right Hand of the Most High. I will remember the Works of the Lord: surely I will remember Thy wonders of old. I will meditate also of all thy work, and talk of thy doings. O Lord, let us remember!  ~Waiting for Jesus, and loving you, Pastor
