that ship had sailed
Psalm 106:47-48 (JDV)
Psalm 106:47 Deliver us, Yahveh our God, and gather us from the nations, so that we may give thanks to your sacred name and rejoice in your praise.
Psalm 106:48 Blessed be Yahveh God of Israel, from age to age. All the people should say, “Amen!” Praise Yah!
The people of God needed deliverance because God was not being praised. Their motivation was to enhance God’s reputation. They did not appeal to God on the basis of their own worthiness. They knew that was a lost cause. That ship had sailed. Instead, they wanted God to be glorified. May our prayers always be prayed in order to hallow the name of our great God.
