Please read Psalm 80.
www.blueletterbible.org/nasb/psa/80/1/s_558001
Meditate on verses 3, 7, and 19.
O God,
restore us and cause Your face to shine upon us, and we will be saved.
O God of hosts, restore us and cause Your face
to shine upon us, and we will be saved.
O LORD
God of hosts, restore us; cause Your face to shine upon us, and we will be
saved.
Asaph’s prayer request sounds the same in three of the
verses, but each time he adds to the name of God; “O God, O God of hosts, O
LORD God of hosts ...” (vs. 3, 7, 19). You can hear the urgency as he calls on
the LORD to save Israel.
Instead of Israel being fed with manna and water from the
rock, God was feeding the people with the bread of tears in large measure (v.
5). Asaph asked God how long He would be angry with the prayer of His people
(v. 4).
Are you or someone you love in a season of God’s discipline
and reproof? Remember that God disciplines those He loves (Hebrews 12:6). Call
on the name of the LORD in repentance and trust.
Pray Psalm
80:17-19 over yourself and those for whom you stand guard as a faithful,
prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“LORD,
let Your hand be upon 
and me.
and me.
Make us
people of Your right hand,
people whom You have made strong for Yourself. Do
not let us turn back from You;
revive us, and we will call upon Your name.
O LORD
God of hosts, restore us;
cause Your face to shine upon us, and we will be
saved. For the sake of Your name, Jesus~”
