Daily Guide (Scripture Union) 5th October 2024

TOPIC: GOD OF JUSTICE, GOD OF GRACE!
OPENING PRAYER: My dear heavenly Father, as I study your word, let it be a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path.
SCRIPTURE: PSALM 78:52-72

Question(s) for Reflection
* Q 1: What does the passage teach about God the Father, or God the Son or God the Holy Spirit?

Scripture Union Daily Guide Outline:

Observe the sequence of events in our reading today. First, we see how God led and guided Israel, fought off their enemies, and placed them in the Promised Land (vs.52-55). Second, we see Israel turning away to worship worthless idols (vs.56-58). Third, we see God, in righteous anger and true justice forsaking His people and delivering them into the hands of their enemies (vs.59-64).

Fourth, we see God coming to the aid of His people and rescuing them from the hands of their enemies (vs.65-66). Fifth, out of all the tribes of Israel, He chose David, of the tribe of Judah, to be the shepherd of His people in the long term (vs.67-72).

Of special interest is the transition from the third step to the fourth. Look at the figure of speech used in v.65. It was like the action of a man suddenly awake from sleep or acting without reason like a drunkard! What God did in saving Israel was actually contrary to reason! They did not deserve God’s mercy! The word for it is “Grace.”

Practice/Word Application
Reflection: Read Romans 5:6-11 and praise God for His grace upon your life.
