Let us call on Him by His name. His name is the Lord, we must rejoice in Him alone. David gives reason for our rejoicing in reciting the acts of God in the desert when God's people were learning to follow Him. As the generation in the desert with Moses gradually died away, there were many widows and fatherless ones in the camp. But they were all cared for in the just administration which flowed by the grace of God through the hands of His appointed ministers and elders.
Women alone exist also in huge numbers today.
And this problem is similar to that problem of emerging Israel from Egypt. Just as Egyptian government policy had separated Fathers from families for their purpose, so to do our own government policies disrupt families today. What opportunity for ministry in our time as we look to verse six. God gathers the lonely into families. The slaves to sin are redeemed and set eternally free by the blood of the Lamb of God.
