Psalms 77
Book of Psalms
Psalms 77:1 To the chief Musician, to Jeduthun, A Psalm of
Asaph. I cried unto God with my voice, even unto God with my voice; and he gave
ear unto me.
2 In the day of my
trouble I sought the Lord: my sore ran in the night, and ceased not: my soul
refused to be comforted.
3 I remembered God, and
was troubled: I complained, and my spirit was overwhelmed. Selah.
4 Thou holdest mine eyes
waking: I am so troubled that I cannot speak.
5 I have considered the
days of old, the years of ancient times.
6 I call to remembrance
my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent
search.
7 Will the Lord cast off
for ever? and will he be favourable no more?
8 Is his mercy clean
gone for ever? doth his promise fail for evermore?
9 Hath God forgotten to
be gracious? hath he in anger shut up his tender mercies? Selah.
10 And I said, This is
my infirmity: but I will remember the years of the right hand of the most High.
11 I will remember the
works of the LORD: surely I will remember thy wonders of old.
12 I will meditate also
of all thy work, and talk of thy doings.
13 Thy way, O God, is in
the sanctuary: who is so great a God as our God?
14 Thou art the God that
doest wonders: thou hast declared thy strength among the people.
15 Thou hast with
thine arm redeemed thy people,
the sons of Jacob and Joseph. Selah.
16 The waters saw thee,
O God, the waters saw thee; they were afraid: the depths also were troubled.
17 The clouds poured out
water: the skies sent out a sound: thine arrows also went abroad.
18 The voice of thy
thunder was in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world: the earth
trembled and shook.
19 Thy way is in the
sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known.
20 Thou leddest thy
people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron.
• Exactly 2520 years from the exile
of Benjamin, Iceland became an independent nation.
•
The first tribe to be
conquered by the Assyrians was Manasseh,
in 745 B.C. Exactly 2520 years later America became a nation on July 4, 1776.
(Leviticus. 26: 28-46) God warned Israel that if they persisted in continually
breaking His Laws, not only would curses come upon them.
He would punish them for seven times, (a time being 360 years, seven times would
be 2520 years) and would banish them from the land of Palestine and scatter them
among the heathens (like lost sheep)
