Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

The future proves the past.

Psalm 43:

Prayer to God in Time of Trouble

43 Vindicate me, O God, and defend my cause

against an ungodly people;

from deceitful and unjust men

deliver me!

2 For thou art the God in whom I take refuge;

why hast thou cast me off?

Why go I mourning

because of the oppression of the enemy?

3 Oh send out thy light and thy truth;

let them lead me,

let them bring me to thy holy hill

and to thy dwelling!

4 Then I will go to the altar of God,

to God my exceeding joy;

and I will praise thee with the lyre,

O God, my God.

5 Why are you cast down, O my soul,

and why are you disquieted within me?

Hope in God; for I shall again praise him,

my help and my God.
