Psalms – The OMG’s– Part 6
Psalms – The OMG’s– Part 6
How many times did David cry out OMG (oh my God), as he was running and surviving assassination attempts from King Saul? I can imagine a weary David in a cave calling out to God, and in doing so comforting his discouraged inner self that there was and is a mighty God on the throne.
As he went from one difficulty to another adversity and through danger and hardships and from bad situations to only find himself in worse circumstances, he called out to God as we see below.
Some of the “OMG’s”
Psalm 22:2 – O my God, I cry in the day time, but thou hearest not; and in the night season, and am not silent.
Psalm 25:2 – O my God, I trust in thee: let me not be ashamed, let not mine enemies triumph over me.
Psalm 38:21 – Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me.
Psalm 71:4 – Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked, out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
How about some of the “OLMG’s”:
Psalm 7:1 – O LORD my God, in thee do I put my trust: save me from all them that persecute me, and deliver me…”
Psalm 13:3 – Consider and hear me, O LORD my God: lighten mine eyes, lest I sleep the sleep of death;
Psalm 35:24 – Judge me, O LORD my God, according to thy righteousness; and let them not rejoice over me.
Psalm 109:26 – Help me, O LORD my God: O save me according to thy mercy:
Somehow, David’s prayers and crying out renewed his spirit. Not only did he call out to God, but he called out to his inner-self to “stand up” and be strengthened. Call out to God today, lift your eyes up, surrender what you think is lost, and keep the hope in your heart alive because as David knew, mercy never leaves.
