Discuss Psalms 74

    Psalm 74

    We see the theme here as in much of the Book of Lamentations where God appears to have cast His presence from His people. When we get to chapter 3; verse 31 He promises not to "cast them off forever." Isaiah 26:20 describes God Himself stating that He had turned away for a short time but would return with mercy. Again; the final prophetic application would appear to be in Revelation (or the time of Jacob's trouble in Jeremiah 30:7).

    The "perpetual desolations" in verse 3 of this Psalm remind us of the "Abomination of Desolation" when the Temple is overtaken by Antichrist much as it was with Antiochus Epiphanes earlier in Daniel 9:25-27 and quoted by Christ starting in Matthew 24:15.

    Verse 8 is as far as I know the only passage in scriptures mentioning the word synagogues; here they were being burned up by the enemy; likely prophetic of the Babylonians and of course the end times. Blasphemy as seen in Revelation 13 is mentioned in verse 18. The prophets being seen no more could refer ahead to the intertestamental times or again when there is vision sought in the end times by false prophets who predicted peace; peace when there is no peace ( Jeremiah 6:14).

    Verse 20 implores God to "have respect unto the Covenant" as related; no doubt to the Promised Land. Once again the poor and needy are sought out as those who the Lord will restore; and the Psalm ends with a plea not to forget those enemies and their "tumult". Surely God will come soon; but will there be any faith on the earth when that Day comes? (See Luke 18:8).

    Jacqui:

    All our sins are covered by the blood of Christ, to repent is to turn from deception, as God opens our eyes to truth, we are constantly repenting of lies and deception, as God reveals himself to us, God causes us to be his adversary, so when we came to truth, we give him all the glory.

    Zechariah 3:1 And he showed me Joshua the high priest standing before the angle of the Lord, and Satan (lies and deception) standing at his right hand to resist him.

    Psalms 74:10 Oh Lord, how long will the adversary reproach? shall the enemy (lies and deception) blaspheme thy name for ever?

    Wes gave a wise answer on Christmas. Exodus 23:8, Deuteronomy 16:19, Ecclesiastes 7:7, may The HOLY Spirit teach us. John 14:26

    I love to celebrate Christmas, I really enjoy the lights, the focus on our Savior. The generosity in the season. Christmas is a time of year, people remember more their fellow man, needs & wants of others. Christmas time reminds us of the joys of giving & putting smiles on others faces, teaching by love & kindnesses. Surprising a person with anonymous unexpected gifts, giving hope to people in desperation, food, clothing, volunteering, etc. warms their hearts, body & soul & sometimes gives them hope for a better ' tomorrow '. Christmas is the time of year people are more willing to receive from a Christian.....

    We as Believers have an open door at Christmas unlike any other time of the year, to show the World who Jesus is, who the Church is.

    When we remember those most "forgotten by others" showing them, they are not forgotten by GOD, it's amazing how even those around them are affected.

    Deuteronomy 15:7, Job 5:16, Proverbs 19:4, Psalms 69:33, Proverbs 14:21, 2Corinthians 9:9, Psalms 68:10, Galatians 2:10, Romans 15:26, Psalms 40:17, Proverbs 22:2, Psalms 41:1, Luke 14:13, Psalms 74:21, Proverbs 29:7, Proverbs 28:27, Psalms 112:9, Psalms 82:3, Daniel 4:27, Proverbs 21:13, Proverbs 31:10,20, context Proverbs 31, Proverbs 19:17, Proverbs 19:7, Luke 4:18, Matthew 11:5, Mark 10:21,

    Proverbs 19:6, Esther 9:22, James 1:27,

    This Christmas season we really have a moment to help comfort, our nations with love, giving hope through the WORD, to poor in spirit & helping heal wounds. There is much we can give this year, for those in need. I pray GOD lead us even now, to start the giving season early. Romans 6:23, 2Corinthians 1:4, Proverbs 15:23,

    Psalms 31:24, Ecclesiastes 3:1,

    John 21:16,17, Jesus said this directly to one person, Simon, Son of Jonas, called Peter. To understand more deeply, you would have to follow the scriptures that happened prior.

    Please read: John 10:1-18, Psalms 100:3,

    Luke 12:22-32,

    Matthew 26:31-75, Mark 14:27-72, Matthew 26:26-29, Mark 14:22-25, prophecy from Old Testament: Isaiah 53, Zechariah 13:7,

    Example of people lovingly referred to as sheep : 2Samuel 24:17, 1Chronicles 21:17, 2Chronicles 18:16, Psalms 74:1, Psalms 78:52, Psalms 79:13, Ezekiel 34:6,

    Matthew 9:26, Matthew 18:12,13, Mark 6:24, 1Peter 2:25, compassion,

    Deuteronomy 8:3,

    John 6:47-69, notice in that moment "Simon Peter"'s reply: John 6:68,

    13Thou didst diuide the sea by thy strength: thou brakest the heads of the dragons in the waters.

    No brother, hurrying through our quiet time is not good. When we now make Jesus to understand is another deception of the devil. Those that do not know God will always try to ignore God, we need strength for the day. Everyday, we hurry through quiet time, our strength will be small. A rich quiet time means greater strength for the day, and things work out as magic. I do hurry sometimes.God help us

    Psalms 74:4 Thine enemies roar in the midst of thy congregations; they set up their ensigns for signs. 8 They said in their hearts, Let us destroy them together: they have burned up all the synagogues of God in the land. 9 We see not our signs: there is no more any prophet: neither is there among us any that knoweth how long.

  • Timothy Wayne George on Psalms 74:9 - 11 years ago
    Israel is currently in the midst of apostasy, and they can not see the signs anywhere, neither is there any prophet to warn them of impending danger. The Psalmist looks to the day when Jesus Christ will return as King of Kings, and Lord of Lords. The poor and the needy will finally receive the justice that they deserve. Even so come Lord Jesus. Take heed, watch, and pray for you know not when your Lord shall come.
  • HARRY ALLISON on Psalms 74 - 11 years ago
