Psalm 73 was written by Asaph who was the music director of the tribe of Levi. Asaph was pouring out his heart to God and also struggling to see God’s justice as he saw the wicked prosper. In each verse of this Psalm we can relate to Asaph’s struggles and doubts, and also see the injustices of our societies. But like Asaph, when we choose to enter God’s presence (sanctuary) we get the big picture. When we go to God in prayer and worship, eternity breaks into our temporal perspective. Everything changed as Asaph entered the sanctuary; God became his focus, not his problems. We are reminded of God's attributes, character and power in this Psalm. In challenging times, be encouraged, stay faithful and trust God for the eternal wealth He has promised.
