Psalm 80: Stir Up Your Power, O Lord, and Come
Manage episode 497757219 series 2094168
In Psalm 80, the people of God cry out to Him to stir up His might to come and save them. Calling upon God as the Shepherd of Israel who is enthroned in His temple, the people ask that God would turn them back to Himself and that He would turn His face toward them. The psalm recounts the history of God’s faithfulness to Israel as His vineyard and God’s judgment against Israel for their idolatry. The psalm prays for the LORD to bless the man of His right hand, the Christ, who will give His people life so that they will call upon Him for salvation.
Rev. Jeff Hemmer, pastor at Bethany Lutheran Church in Fairview Heights, IL, joins host Rev. Timothy Appel to study Psalm 80.

Join Sharper Iron this summer to study selected Psalms. In the Psalter, God speaks His Word to us and teaches us how to speak back to Him in prayer. Even in the great variety of the Psalms, each one points us to our Savior, Jesus Christ.
Sharper Iron, hosted by Rev. Timothy Appel, looks at the text of Holy Scripture both in its broad context and its narrow detail, all for the sake of proclaiming Christ crucified and risen for sinners. Two pastors engage with God's Word to sharpen not only their own faith and knowledge, but the faith and knowledge of all who listen. Submit comments or questions to: [email protected]
