[S] Psalm 50:15 --
15 Call upon Me in the day of trouble;
I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me."
[O] In light of this passage, the cycles Israelites go through in Book of Judges where they live peacefully by the protection of God and then they fall away to worship idols which leads to harsh times under the enemy's rule and then they cry out to God again when they cannot bear it anymore; and the cycle continues seven times in that book. Will God stop coming to the rescue at a certain point because His people just don't get it? According to this Psalmist, God will rescue us every time. Furthermore, His purpose for rescuing us is not for us to live peacefully but for us to honor Him.
[A] Life seems to busy and packed with so much stuff to take care I do not honor God as much as He deserves. As the air I breathe, I should honor Him every moment, consistently.
[P] Dear God, thank You for rescuing me every time I cry out to you whenever I am in trouble even when I dug my own grave. But I am so thrilled to know that as a sign of Your covenant to hear my cry and rescue me through Your Son's death and resurrection, I will honor You as I breathe the air. May You sustain me and my family members' spiritual and physical strength as we pass through this journey on earth. In Jesus' name. Amen.
