Psalm 42

We had a pretty good prayer meeting tonight. It was good not because of numbers but it was a very genuine cry of repentance and confessions by all the men present. We repented on behalf of the church, for our coldness of hearts, and generally cry for a real revival and for God to raise up more faithful and faith-filled men in our midst.

I shared with an exposition from Psalms 42 - presumably written by the Sons of Korah. The remnants of the rebellious lot against Moses.
They are real worshippers and singers

A Psalm of genuine cry to God for his intervention, real broken and contrite heart. "Where is your God?" Their enemies or distractors continues to taunt..... David was tuanted by Shimei when he was forced to leave Jerusalem when his own son, Absalom rebelled against him. The Lord Jesus was tuanted by the soldiers who nailed him on the cross. "My God, my God, Why have you forsaken me?"..... ( Matt 27:46)


Psalm 42

For the director of music. A maskil of the Sons of Korah.
1 As the deer pants for streams of water, so my soul pants for you, O God.
2 My soul thirsts for God, for the living God. When can I go and meet with God?
3 My tears have been my food day and night, while men say to me all day long, "Where is your God?"
4 These things I remember as I pour out my soul: how I used to go with the multitude, leading the procession to the house of God, with shouts of joy and thanksgiving among the festive throng.
5 Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and
6 my God. My soul is downcast within me; therefore I will remember you from the land of the Jordan, the heights of Hermon—from Mount Mizar.
7 Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.
8 By day the LORD directs his love, at night his song is with me— a prayer to the God of my life.
9 I say to God my Rock, "Why have you forgotten me? Why must I go about mourning, oppressed by the enemy?"
10 My bones suffer mortal agony as my foes taunt me, saying to me all day long, "Where is your God?"
11 Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.
