Introduction

  • This is a psalm of individual lament

  • Verse 11 is the fulcrum on which the Psalm turns

  • The lack of specific detail about the author’s own circumstances means that we can use this psalm ourselves in many situations

I am Needy (v 1-7)

  • This is a model prayer, it is true for all of us all of the time

  • The author is absolutely certain of God’s faithfulness …

  • … he trusts completely in God alone

Great is Your Love (v 8-13)

  • Brueggemann describes God as the “Worker of Wondrous Impossibilities”

  • v11 is the crucial verse

Have Mercy on Me (v 14-17)

  • There is a huge contrast between how life might seem to the godless and how life seems to the person with faith

  • Note the absence of any “victim mentality” here

Application

What have we learnt this morning?  

  • We are poor and needy

  • We can be absolutely certain of God’s faithfulness

  • Our heart should be undivided
