Top 10 Old Testament Prayers #3: Ps 88

from Gospel Rant Hosted by Bill Senyard

This prayer has been often labeled the black psalm. You will see why. It ends, “Darkness is my closest friend,” clearly a slap in the face of the God who loves the unlovable. Can we really say such things to God? Isn’t that a sin? Yes and yes. But such imprecatory psalms have been given to us because they most effectively give us our heart’s real unvarnished words—not careful, theologically accurate and whitewashed words. In this groaning creation, we are going to need such prayers. I just call this my psalm. You'll see what I mean. Love feedback, [email protected]. PLEASE SUBSCRIBE, LIKE or FOLLOW.
