Day 173: History, REBELLION, and God’s Mercy in Psalm 78-82 | Bible In A Year (CSB)

On Day 173 of our "Bible in a Year" journey, we explore Psalms 78-82. These psalms recount Israel’s history of rebellion and God’s steadfast love, lament His apparent absence amid national distress, and call for His judgment on unjust nations. They blend memory, prayer, and hope in God’s enduring faithfulness.

Questions:
1. Psalm 78 retells Israel’s cycle of disobedience and God’s mercy—how does this narrative challenge us to reflect on learning from our past failures to cultivate a deeper trust in His grace?

2. Psalms 79-80 plead for restoration amid ruin—how might these cries prompt us to consider the role of persistent prayer in seeking God’s intervention when His presence feels distant?

3. Psalm 82 depicts God judging unjust rulers—how does this vision of divine justice invite us to wrestle with our responsibility to uphold righteousness, anticipating Christ’s ultimate reign?
