Good evening, everyone!
Today I read Psalms 51-57, but I'll be focusing on Psalm 54.
This psalm was written when Saul was still seeking David, and the Ziphites had given him up to Saul.
Save me, O God, by Your name, and vindicate me by Your power. Hear my prayer, O God; give ear to the words of my mouth. For strangers have risen against me and violent men have sought my life; they have not set God before them. Selah
No matter who comes against us, God is always with us. Those who do not revere God will fail.
Behold, God is my helper; the Lord is the sustainer of my soul. He will recompense the evil to my foes; destroy them in Your faithfulness.
God is faithful to help us. He sustains our souls. He is just, and will repay evil.
Willingly I will sacrifice to You; I will give thanks to Your name, O LORD, for it is good. For He has delivered me from all trouble, and my eye has looked with satisfaction upon my enemies.
God wants us to sacrifice to Him willingly: our time, our gifts, our tithes. Because He has already delivered us from so many of our troubles, and is faithful to continue to deliver us.
We can cry "Save me, O Lord," with confidence.
I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read Psalm 58-65.
