God Is On Our Side (May 4)
Backgrounder on Psalms 55-59:
These five psalms capture the
emotions of King David during
some of his most difficult days.
Notice David’s frank petitions and
confident trust in God in the wake
of being betrayed (P55), broken-
hearted (P56) & pursued (P57,59)
Through it all David knows there
is reward for the righteous and
God judgeth in the earth (P58:11).
Lord, we’ll Trust In You & Not Fear:
Whenever I am afraid,
I will trust in You.
In God (I will praise His Word),
In God I have put my trust;
I will not fear. What can flesh
do to me? (Psalm 56:3-4).
When I cry out to You,
Then my enemies will turn back;
This I know because God is For me.
In God (I will praise His Word),
In God I have put my trust;
I will not be afraid. What can
man do to me? (Psalm 56:9-11).
I will render praises to You,
For You have delivered my soul…
Have You not kept my feet fr falling,
that I may walk before God
in the light of the living (v12-13).
Lord, You have said that when
I’m afraid, I can put my Trust in You.
Thank You Lord for Your word that
promises Your presence with me
as well as protection & provision.
You are my Hiding Place, so
please hold my hand in difficult
circumstances. Help me to Trust
In You & to walk close to You. Amen
Lord, in the midst of tough times, it’s hard to remember that You are In Control. You sit enthroned above the heavens and will Fulfil Your Purpose in my life. Instead of complaining & doubting, I will wait patiently for Your goodness and Trust confidently in Your infinite power. Amen.
Lord, I will render praise to You,
for You have delivered my soul,
for You have kept my feet fr falling.
You are My Hiding Place;
You always fill my heart
with songs of diverance
Whenever I am afraid
I will trust in You… I will trust in You
Let the weak say I am strong
With the strength of the Lord
I Will Trust In You. Amen.
