O' Lord - Psalm 130:1-5





This is “Namma for Christ” with the one hundred twenty-eighth inspirational message dated Monday, February 26th, 2018.  The title of this message is, “O’ Lord” –  Psalm 130:1-5. The title of this message is also the title of the above inspirational song/video “O’ Lord” (with lyrics) by Lauren Daigle.

The words, “O’ Lord”, is a title of a song, but it also is a declaration of what “any believer” might say – WHEN THEY CRY OUT TO GOD…. when they don’t know what else to say! The first five verses of the 130th Psalm of David (see below) has these two words in the first verse:



Psalm 130:1-5
New Living Translation (NLT)

Psalm 130


From the depths of despair, O Lord,
    I call for Your help.
Hear my cry, O Lord.
    Pay attention to my prayer.


3 Lord, if You kept a record of our sins,
    who, O Lord, could ever survive?
But You offer forgiveness,
    that we might learn to fear You.

I am counting on the Lord;
    yes, I am counting on Him.
    I have put my hope in His word. 
 

There are times or circumstances in our lives, when we simply don’t know what to say.  We might be in situations, in which we simply don’t understand or can’t control…

 

These are the moments when we MUST TRUST IN JESUS!

 

As believers in Jesus Christ, we know Jesus hears us when we pray. In fact, Peter told us to cast ALL our cares on the Lord, for He cares for us – see 1st Peter 5: 7 - below:

1 Peter 5:7

King James Version (KJV)

Casting all your care upon Him; for He careth for you.

 

Jesus wants us to continually to pray to Him. He wants us to TRUST IN & DEPEND on HIM, not ourselves…As Proverbs 3:5-6 reminds us:

Proverbs 3:5-6


New King James Version (NKJV)


Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
And lean not on your own understanding;
In all your ways acknowledge Him,

And He shall direct your paths.

 

Our scripture for this message in Psalm 130:1-5, also refers to PUTTING OUR HOPE in the LORD – see verse 5:
Psalm 130:5
New Living Translation (NLT)

I am counting on the Lord;
    yes, I am counting on Him.
    I have put my hope in His word.
 
Jesus is Our Savior, Our Hope, Our Redeemer, Our Protector, Our Defender…. Jesus’ very name – “Emmanuel” means “GOD WITH US”!
 

YOU CAN TRUST IN JESUS – NO MATTER WHAT!

There are times in our lives that we won’t understand what is going on, but WE “CAN” TRUST in Our Lord and Savior JESUS CHRIST!

 JESUS IS WITH US – and He knows BEST! Cry out to Him – even if it is only two words, “O, Lord” or just one Word – "JESUS". He HEARS US and He LOVES US!  Jesus wants what is BEST for us!
