King of Old

June 22 – King of Old - Psalm 74:12

     This is a psalm of Asaph it is a marskil or a psalm about how God can turn rejection into a victory.  Have you ever felt rejected and in a place of despair?  Asaph explains that we can be in that place and yet God reaches down and pulls us out.  The devil loves to isolate and speak words of fear, despair and loneliness into a life.  To fight that lie we must remember that the Lord will never forsake or leave us.

     Aspah makes a statement so powerful in its thought and purpose.  “But you oh God are my King from of old.”  He reminds his readers that God was in charge a long time ago and He will help today.  He is King of all creation, of water earth and sky.  Heavens are your tabernacle and you reign on earth and on high.  The Lord has brought salvation to the earth.  This is something we must remember.  Our salvation comes from the Lord.  He will rescue us from loneliness, isolation, fear and despair.  Remember that today before you go into your world.
