God Is for Us
Ken Trivette
Psalm 56
1. THE FEAR THAT SURROUNDS US
a. The Attacks He Faced
b. The Adversity He Felt
2. THE FAITH THAT STRENGTHENS US
a. God Will Keep His People
b. God Will Keep His Promises
1. In the 1918 influenza pandemic, that is often called the Spanish flu, the Pine Ridge Reservation was hit extremely hard. Reservation deaths were four times higher than the general population. James Giago Davies, writing for the Native Sun News Today, reported in May 2018 that, ''you were almost three times as likely to die from the flu if you were Oglala Lakota.'' I read that the reservation struggled to bury all the dead.
2. None of us went through the 1918-20 pandemic (I do not think any here were living at that time). However, over the past few months we have been facing another pandemic. These past few months have been unprecedented for all of us. It has been a time that none of us has ever experienced or gone through. For most of us, if not all of us, we have been going through our first pandemic.
3. Our whole way of life has been turned upside down. At the beginning of the year, none of us could even imagine what this year would bring and how all our lives would be dramatically affected.
4. In this time of uncertainty we need certainty. When we look to God's Word, we find that certainty. Psalm 56:9 tells us that God is for us. When it seems that so much is against us, we can say with the Psalmist, ''this is I know; for God is for me.''
5. The great British preacher of another age, Charles Spurgeon said, ''He is ''for us,'' with all the infinity of His being; with all the omnipotence of His love; with all the infallibility of His wisdom; arrayed in all His divine attributes, He is ''for us,''-eternally and immutably ''for us''; ''for us'' when yon blue skies shall be rolled up like a worn out vesture; ''for us'' throughout eternity.'' (Morning and Evening)
