93 From the Book of Psalms is: Psalm 116
While
this psalm is written in the first person, there are indications that, like the
other psalms of this group, it has a national character and sets forth the
reaction of the nation to the deliverance from exile. At the same time it
echoes the personal experience of any believer.
1- How did
trouble test the faith of the writer, and what new realization did his
experience bring?
2- What is
shown about his prayer during the trouble and afterwards? What resolves and
dedication sprang from his experience?
Note. Verse 15. God sets a high value on the life
of His people and does not regard their death lightly.
