We Trust God Is On Our Side
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’ll trust in U.
In God (I will praise His Word)
In God I have put my trust; I will
not fear. What can flesh do to me?..
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 56:3-4 & 9-11).
My soul trusts in You; and
in the shadow of Your wings
I will make my refuge, until
these calamities have passed by.
I Cry Out to God Most High,
who will Fulfil His Purpose for me
and vindicate me… My Heart Is
Confident In You, O God; my heart
is confident. No wonder I can sing
your praises (Psa 57:1-2 & 7-8).
Lord, you have said that when
I’m afraid, I can put my Trust in You.
Thank You for Your word that
promises Your presence with me
as well as protection and 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, in my distress, I still choose
to Trust and have hope in the
fulfilment of your purposes for
my life. Cause me not to hide
my troubled heart from you,
but to Cry Out to you. For You are
able to turn any trouble I face into
a fulfilment of my destiny. Amen.
