Psalm 77:10-12
Then I thought, "To this I will appeal: the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand. I will remember the deeds of the LORD; yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago. I will consider all your works and meditate on all your mighty deeds."
the years when the Most High stretched out his right hand
Exodus 15:6 "Your right hand, LORD, was majestic in power. Your right hand, LORD, shattered the enemy."
yes, I will remember your miracles of long ago
Nehemiah 9:16-19 "But they, our ancestors, became arrogant and stiff-necked, and they did not obey your commands. They refused to listen and failed to remember the miracles you performed among them. They became stiff-necked and in their rebellion appointed a leader in order to return to their slavery. But you are a forgiving God, gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love. Therefore you did not desert them, even when they cast for themselves an image of a calf and said, 'This is your god who brought you up out of Egypt,' or when they committed awful blasphemies."
I will consider all your works
Genesis 24:62-63 Now Isaac had come from Beer Lahai Roi, for he was living in the Negev. He went out to the field one evening to meditate, and as he looked up, he saw camels approaching.
and meditate on all your mighty deeds
Psalm 143:5 I remember the days of long ago; I meditate on all your works and consider what your hands have done.

Psalm 74:4-8 Part 1 of 3
Your foes roared in the place where you met with us; they set up their standards as signs. They behaved like men wielding axes to cut through a thicket of trees. They smashed all the carved paneling with their axes and hatchets. They burned your sanctuary to the ground; they defiled the dwelling place of your Name. They said in their hearts, "We will crush them completely!" They burned every place where God was worshiped in the land.
Your foes roared in the place where you met with us
Lamentations 2:7 The LORD has rejected his altar and abandoned his sanctuary. He has given the walls of her palaces into the hands of the enemy; they have raised a shout in the house of the LORD as on the day of an appointed festival.
they set up their standards as signs
Numbers 2:2 "The Israelites are to camp around the tent of meeting some distance from it, each of them under their standard and holding the banners of their family."
Jeremiah 4:6 "Raise the signal to go to Zion! Flee for safety without delay! For I am bringing disaster from the north, even terrible destruction."
they behaved like men wielding axes to cut through a thicket of trees
Jeremiah 46:22 "Egypt will hiss like a fleeing serpent as the enemy advances in force; they will come against her with axes, like men who cut down trees."
They smashed all the carved paneling with their axes and hatchets
1 Kings 6:18 The inside of the temple was cedar, carved with gourds and open flowers. Everything was cedar; no stone was to be seen.

Psalm 74:2-3 Part 2 of 2
Remember the
nation you purchased long ago, the people of your inheritance, whom you
redeemed--Mount Zion, where you dwelt. Turn your steps toward these
everlasting ruins, all this destruction the enemy has brought on the
sanctuary.
Mount Zion
Psalm 2:6 "I have installed my king on Zion, my holy mountain."
where you dwelt
Psalm 43:3 Send me your light and your faithful care, let them lead me; let them bring me to your holy mountain, to the place where you dwell.
Psalm 68:16 ...why gaze in envy, you rugged mountain (Mount Bashan), at the mountain where God chooses to reign, where the LORD himself will dwell forever?
Isaiah 46:13 "I am bringing my righteousness near, it is not far away; and my salvation will not be delayed. I will grant salvation to Zion, my splendor to Israel."
Joel 3:21 "Shall I leave their innocent blood unavenged? No, I will not." The LORD dwells in Zion!
Obadiah 1:17 "But on Mount Zion will be deliverance; it will be holy, and Jacob will possess his inheritance."
Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins
Isaiah 44:24-28 "This is what the LORD says--your Redeemer, who formed you in the womb: I am the LORD, the Maker of all things, who stretches out the heavens, who spreads out the earth by myself, who foils the signs of false prophets and makes fools of diviners, who overthrows the learning of the wise and turns it into nonsense, who carries out the words of his servants and fulfills the predictions of his messengers, who says of Jerusalem, 'It shall be inhabited,' of the towns of Judah, 'They shall be rebuilt,' and of their ruins, 'I will restore them,' who says to the watery deep,' Be dry, and I will dry up your streams,' who says of Cyrus, 'He is my shepherd and will accomplish all that I please; he will say of Jerusalem, "Let it be rebuilt," and of the temple, "Let its foundations be laid." ' "
Isaiah 52:9 Burst into songs of joy together, you ruins of Jerusalem, for the LORD has comforted his people, he has redeemed Jerusalem.

Psalm 74:2-3 Part 1 of 2
Remember the nation you purchased long ago, the people of your inheritance, whom you redeemed--Mount Zion, where you dwelt. Turn your steps toward these everlasting ruins, all this destruction the enemy has brought on the sanctuary.
Remember the nation you purchased
Exodus 15:15-16 "The chiefs of Edom will be terrified, the leaders of Moab will be seized with trembling, the people of Canaan will melt away; terror and dread will fall on them. By the power of your arm they will be as still as a stone--until your people pass by, LORD, until the people you bought pass by."
1 Corinthians 6:19-20 Do you not know that your bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, who is in you, whom you have received from God? You are not your own; you were bought at a price. Therefore honor God with your bodies.
long ago
Deuteronomy 32:7 Remember the days of old; consider the generations long past. Ask your father and he will tell you, your elders, and they will explain to you.
the people of your inheritance
Exodus 34:9 "Lord," he (Moses) said, "if I have found favor in your eyes, then let the Lord go with us. Although this is a stiff-necked people, forgive our wickedness and our sin, and take us as your inheritance."
Isaiah 48:20 Leave Babylon, flee from the Babylonians! Announce this with shouts of joy and proclaim it. Send it out to the ends of the earth; say, "The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob."
