Psalm 10: When God Seems Hidden: The Cry of the Oppressed

Season: Psalms

Pastor: Patrick Dailey

Date: 8th December 2025

Passage: Psalm 10:1-18

-------------------

Psalm 10 is one of the most honest prayers in Scripture—raw anguish, deep lament, and bold trust colliding in one chapter:

1️⃣ The Appeal: “Why, Lord, do You stand far off?” (vv 1–2) 2️⃣ The Arrogance: The wicked boast, deceive, exploit, and believe God does not see (vv 3–11) 3️⃣ The Assurance: God does see, God will act, and God will bring justice (vv 12–18)

In this special return episode, I share a brief update from the last six months and then walk through Psalm 10 using the OIA method—Observation, Interpretation, Application. Together, we explore:

How to lament honestly when God feels distant The mindset and hidden assumptions of the wicked Why pride blinds people spiritually How God defends the oppressed and upholds justice in His timing Building integrity when “no one is watching” Filling your mind with what is holy, good, and life-giving Trusting that God’s justice is never absent, even when it is unseen

📖 Scripture: Psalm 10 (NIV) 🎵 Featured song: “It All Tumbles Down” — Kid in Flight 💬 Themes: Lament · Justice · Hiddenness · Integrity · Faithfulness

➡️ Real Talk. Real Truth. Real Transformation.

Main Theme: When God seems distant, trust that His justice—though hidden—is never absent.

Pastor: Patrick Dailey

Date: 12th May 2025

Passage: Psalm 8:1-9

David looked up at the night sky and felt overwhelmed: not just by how vast creation is, but by the fact that God intimately cares for humanity. Psalm 8 is David’s poetic reflection on majesty and mindfulness.

In this episode, Pastor Patrick explores:

• How observing nature deepens our worship.
• Why God chooses the humble praise of children.
• What stewardship over creation truly means.
• The intentionality behind our God-given dignity.
• How awe at God’s majesty transforms our daily lives.

📖 Main Theme:
The God who names every star knows your name too—revealing His greatness through creation and His goodness through intimate care.
