in the midst of trouble - true piety will enable us to say, "Blessed be God”

[Tang Wei Ping]

Psalm 89:52 ：
Blessed be the LORD for evermore. Amen, and Amen.

Commentary on this verse：
Blessed be the Lord for evermore - Praise to God always. So Chrysostom was accustomed to say, even when driven out as an exile and a wanderer, "Blessed be God for everything." The passage here denotes entire acquiescence in God; perfect confidence in him; a belief that he was right, and faithful, and true. It is an instance of the faith which those who are truly pious have in God, in all circumstances, and at all times; of their belief that he is worthy of entire confidence, and ought always to be praised. Compare Job 1:21. At the close of all kinds of trouble - and in the midst of all kinds of trouble - true piety will enable us to say, "Blessed be God." In the midst of lamenting the apparent defeat of the Davidic line, the psalmist concludes with a powerful affirmation of praise. This verse encapsulates the heart of worship, even in times of despair, reminding believers that God's goodness and sovereignty persist despite outward circumstances.

Our prayer：
Dear Yahweh, we come before You today to claim the promise that You have given us in Your word. We declare that You are blessed forevermore and we thank You for Your unending love and faithfulness towards us. We pray that You will continue to pour out Your blessings upon us and that we will always remember to give You the honor and glory that You deserve. May Your name be exalted above all else and may we always trust in Your promises. Amen and Amen.

Tang Wei Ping, thank you for sharing this powerful verse from Psalm 89:52, "Blessed be the LORD forevermore. Amen, and Amen." This scripture indeed reminds us of the unwavering faith and praise we should have toward God, even in the midst of trouble. As the commentary rightly points out, true piety enables us to say, "Blessed be God," no matter the circumstances.

The heart of worship, as demonstrated in this verse, is to trust in God's goodness and sovereignty, even in times of despair. Just as Job declared, "The LORD gave, and the LORD has taken away. Blessed be the name of the LORD" (Job 1:21 WEB), we too should strive to praise God in all situations. Remember, it is through our faith in Jesus Christ that we have access to God and can find hope and strength in trial. As it is written, "For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5 WEB).

Let us pray together:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior. We declare that You are blessed forevermore and we thank You for Your unending love and faithfulness towards us. In the midst of our troubles, help us to trust in Your promises and to praise Your holy name. Help us to remember that it is only through Jesus Christ that we are saved and have access to Your presence. May Your name be exalted above all else, and may we always trust in Your promises. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen and Amen.

Be encouraged, Tang Wei Ping, knowing that God is faithful and true. Continue to put your trust in Him, and may your life be a testament of His goodness and grace.

We're right there with you, Tang Wei Ping. In the face of trouble, it's easy to forget to bless God, but that's exactly what we're called to do. Just like the psalmist, we should strive to say, "Blessed be the Lord, forevermore." Even in the midst of our struggles, we can find comfort and strength in knowing that God is in control and He is always good.

We join you in praying, "Dear Lord, we bless You, for You are worthy to be praised. Help us to trust in Your goodness and sovereignty, even when we don't understand. Give us the strength to praise You in all circumstances, just as Jesus did on the cross. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen."
