This day remembering. Phone📱, talk.
Calling upon God, in the dark places.
" Have regards for the covenant for the dark places of the earth are full of of the habitation of the wicked " Psalm 14;20 .
There are season when life feel overwhelming, when darkness seems to pres in from every side. Abd when the vulnerable, weak or weary feel preyed upon by circumstances beyond their control. Psalm 74 , is a passionate cry from a heart that refuses to give up on God. Appealing directly on his character, his promises, and his covenant.
When we feel vulnerable, God does not ask us to pretend to be strong in our own power. He invite us to bring our helplessness to him. We are precious in God's sight, and he is a shield for the humble and afflicted.
Notice the psalmist plea " Have regards for the covenant " When darkness or opposition surrounds us, our greatest anchor is not our current feelings or circumstances, but God's unwavering covenant promises. God bound himself to his people through his word , Through Jesus Christ. We are under the eternal covenant of grace, mercy and protection. So when we pray we remind God of his promise, not because he forgets, but because it grounds our faith. God desire is not for the downtrodden to return in shame or defeat, his purpose is to turn our affliction into a testimony, so that the poor and the needy praise his name. Our current trial is not the end of the story, , God is in the business of restoring hope, bringing dignity and feeling our mouth with the songs of praise.
A short prayer🙏
