O GOD, Thou hast cast us off, Thou hast scattered us, Thou hast been displeased; O turn Thyself to us again. Thou hast made the earth to tremble; Thou hast broken it: heal the breaches thereof; for it shaketh. Thou hast shewed Thy people hard things: Thou hast made us to drink the wine of astonishment. Thou hast given a banner to them that fear Thee, that it may be displayed because of the Truth. Selah.
That Thy beloved may be delivered; save with Thy right hand, and hear me. (Psalms 60:1-5)
David cried out to GOD for deliverance from his physical enemies, but he teaches us to cry unto the GOD who has judged all mankind and yet provided the only Salvation. The Truth of GOD's Word declares that GOD alone can save. Even when we were at war with GOD and separated from Him because of our sIn, He loved us and came to this earth for us.
Just as He turned the captivity of the faithful Israelites, and delivered them at His appointed time from their just punishment, so He will deliver those of us who know Him and are secure in His Hand. His love is a banner over us, and an ensign to the nations. His Word is our message, and the only authoritative and lasting Truth for this lost and dying world.
While GOD has not forsaken Israel, and will one day turn His attention back to the Jews and their nation, He currently calls everyone everywhere to repent. If you don't know Him He says you must be born again. Surrender to Him on His terms and believe His Word that you may receive a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. Jesus loves you and is not willing that you should perish. He wants to establish a covenant relationship with Him that is real and personal. Place your faith and trust in His finished work on the Cross of Calvary and receive His free gift of Salvation and forgiveness.
In Christ,
