BASIC SCRIPTURE: PSALM 42: 5-11 13′

Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted in me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him for the help of his countenance.

O my God, my soul is cast down within me: therefore will I remember thee from the land of Jordan, and of the Hermonites, from the hill Mizar.

Deep calleth unto deep at the noise of thy waterspouts: all thy waves and thy billows are gone over me.

Yet the Lord will command his lovingkindness in the day time, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life.

I will say unto God my rock, Why hast thou forgotten me? why go I mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?

10 As with a sword in my bones, mine enemies reproach me; while they say daily unto me, Where is thy God?

11 Why art thou cast down, O my soul? and why art thou disquieted within me? hope thou in God: for I shall yet praise him, who is the health of my countenance, and my God.

Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and 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. Deep calls to deep in the roar of your waterfalls; all your waves and breakers have swept over me.

By day the Lord directs his love, at night his song is with me—a prayer to the God of my life.

I say to God my Rock, ‘Why have you forgotten me? Why must I go about mourning, oppressed by the enemy?’ My bones suffer mortal agony as my foes taunt me, saying to me all day long, ‘Where is your God?’

Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God.”

This beautiful Psalm reflects a heartfelt cry to God from a soul experiencing deep anguish and distress. The psalmist expresses feelings of being downcast and overwhelmed by circumstances, facing taunts from adversaries that challenge their faith.

Despite the internal turmoil, the psalmist encourages their own soul to find hope and trust in God. They express determination to praise God, recognizing Him as their Savior and the source of hope and strength, even in the midst of adversity.

The Psalm captures the tension between distress and unwavering faith, emphasizing the importance of turning to God for comfort, reassurance, and deliverance during challenging times. It’s a powerful reminder that, even in our darkest moments, our hope remains anchored in God’s unfailing love and sovereignty.
