Psalms 77:7-10 - Hawker's Poor Man's Commentary

Bible Comments

These are blessed inquiries, and all tend to lead the soul to God, and to induce the happy issue in which the questions end. No, God hath not cast off his people whom he foreknew. God hath not, God will not. He hath spoken peace to Israel, and he will not unsay it. Then it is our infirmity, and not the want of God's faithfulness, that induceth complaints of all kinds. It is blessed to hang upon God, as a covenant God, when all things are dark and discouraging. The word, the oath of Jehovah, sealed in the blood of the covenant, are enough to still the soul under the sharpest exercises of faith.

Psalms 77:7-10

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.
