Psalm 83

The first verse of psalm 83 makes it clear that this is a song of petition to God by someone who cannot see the movement of his divine hand. God's voice, attention, and actions each appear to be still from the center of the storm in Asaph's life. What does God expect us to do when we are surrounded by those who seek to bring us down? Asaph, along with most of us, long for God to act as judge on our behalf. But since we know that the world has already been convicted of their sin are we sure God wants us to present him as a judge. Asaph thought God's judgment would convince the world of his sovereignty. Maybe God has his sights set somewhere else.
