Lamentations 5-21
Restore us to yourself, O LORD, that we may return; renew our days as of old.
—Lamentations 5:21
Thoughts on the Verse
When these words were first spoken, they focused on God's restoration of Israel back to its place, its prominence, its life, and its Temple. Yet from our vantage point, this prayer can be ours as well. Restoration can mean Christ's return which brings us home to God. On that day, every barrier standing between God and us will fall. Our mortality will be swallowed up in victory. We will see God face to face and get to walk with him in the cool of the day as his perfect children. May that day come soon.
Prayer
Holy God, empower me for my battles with the Evil One and deliver me from all spiritual harm and attack. Until the day I see you face to face, please accept my praise for all you have done to save me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
