Psalm 123 Prayer for the LORD'S Help A Song of Ascents
In the last two verses, what are we asking? Why are we filled with contempt? It's not our contempt that is filling us. That would be sin. This relates to an earlier psalm about loving peace but living among those who love war. There will always be those reject or dismiss us because of our belief in God. They will heap scorn and scoffing, mocking and contempt on us. God's grace allows us to shrug off the contempt so long as our focus is on Him. We pray for the oil of His grace so that the dirt of the world will simply slide off. |
