Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

The future proves the past.

Psalm 124:

Thanksgiving for Israel’s Deliverance

A Song of Ascents. Of David.

124 If it had not been the Lord who was on our side,

let Israel now say—

2 if it had not been the Lord who was on our side,

when men rose up against us,

3 then they would have swallowed us up alive,

when their anger was kindled against us;

4 then the flood would have swept us away,

the torrent would have gone over us;

5 then over us would have gone

the raging waters.

6 Blessed be the Lord,

who has not given us

as prey to their teeth!

7 We have escaped as a bird

from the snare of the fowlers;

the snare is broken,

and we have escaped!

8 Our help is in the name of the Lord,

who made heaven and earth.

Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

The future proves the past.

Psalm 125:

The Security of God’s People

A Song of Ascents.

125 Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion,

which cannot be moved, but abides for ever.

2 As the mountains are round about Jerusalem,

so the Lord is round about his people,

from this time forth and for evermore.

3 For the scepter of wickedness shall not rest

upon the land allotted to the righteous,

lest the righteous put forth

their hands to do wrong.

4 Do good, O Lord, to those who are good,

and to those who are upright in their hearts!

5 But those who turn aside upon their crooked ways

the Lord will lead away with evildoers!

Peace be in Israel!

The Psalms speak for themselves.

I would only add:

Our Lord's Mercy is greater than any evil.

God Bless!
