Psalms 88

Psalms 88:1-18

Contents: Lamentation over trouble and pleading with God for mercy.

Characters: God, Psalmist.

Conclusion: Sometimes the best of God’s saints are severely exercised with the sorest of inward troubles and would be distracted with dismal apprehensions but for the Throne of grace to which they may seek for mercy and strength. Lest there be offenses which prevent the Lord from giving favorable regard to our requests, such times should be times of earnest heart searching.
