Psalms 10 and 11 - God Watches Over His People

12 Arise, O Lord!
Lift your hand, O God.
Do not forget oppressed people!
Psalms 10:12 (GW)

4 The Lord is in his holy temple.
The Lord's throne is in heaven.
His eyes see.
They examine Adam's descendants.
Psalms 11:4 (GW)

Reflection of B:

Tonight's passage again reminds me of the 2 Korean Christians who were killed by the Telebans terrorists, and another 21 still under hostage. Their lives are in danger of death any moment. Yet we are reminded that God did not forget his people who are oppressed. He watches from heaven and see the wickedness of the terrorists and the suffering of his children. Is He slow to save His children? No, He examines them and know when to act.


Dear Lord,
I pray that Your words will ring in the heart of my brothers and sisters who are under hostage now. I pray that You will stretch out Your mighty hands towards themas You see their sufferings. I pray that the wicked ones will surrender and let Your people go,as in the days of Moses. I pray that Your love and grace be upon Your children now.
In Jesus' name I ask and plea. Amen.
