Psalm 80
Psalm 80, Season 1 Episode 42
Dear friends. This is one of the communal laments in the book of Psalm. It is characteristic of them to ask: "How long O Lord?" followed by a national disease or personal distress. The psalmist must know that God's answer will always be: "Never again." as in Psalm 10. BUT this pure knowledge of God is not enough. He knows a high-temperature comfort in a bleak cold winter surrounded by violence of his enemies. Here in the Psalm, the psalmist sang the most BEAUTIFUL song of the vine tree which gives life and through which its branches were delivered from Egypt and from all evil.
When will God uproot the tree of all evil? This is the genuine question we pray and we long for even at this moment when protesting is on the move across the nation. The Psalmist gives a calm and beautiful picture of this tree. Its visibility reaches all the earth and its height and strength are stronger than death. This is the tree of life. This is the tree of the vine. This is the son of man who was totally forsaken in order to give life. He replaced the root of all evil with his own body. We are all live in him. We need his righteousness so bad now and we can not bear to not see him. We desire he stands among the nations to cease all the war. We adore his sacrificial love and eternal plan so that we, sinners, murderers, mobs could have life through him. Lord gives life. Lord shine your face. Make your righteousness known to those who desire you and who despise you alike. Save now. Lord. Friends who can we not pray?
