Psalms 57:4-11

Psalms 57:4-11 NET

I am surrounded by lions; I lie down among those who want to devour me; men whose teeth are spears and arrows, whose tongues are a sharp sword. Rise up above the sky, O God! May your splendor cover the whole earth! They have prepared a net to trap me; I am discouraged. They have dug a pit for me. They will fall into it! (Selah) I am determined, O God! I am determined! I will sing and praise you! Awake, my soul! Awake, O stringed instrument and harp! I will wake up at dawn! I will give you thanks before the nations, O Master! I will sing praises to you before foreigners! For your loyal love extends beyond the sky, and your faithfulness reaches the clouds. Rise up above the sky, O God! May your splendor cover the whole earth!

My Soul Trusts in Him

5 Days

Discover how you can let the confidence of your life trust in your GOD! Forget about the people, relationships, the job, world news, current affairs, and all the things that seem to slip away from our control. David says, "My soul trusts in you.... For my soul is among the lions (the Godly), and I lie among the men on fire (the prophets)..." and he strengthened himself in the lord when everyone was against him. He always went with the purposes that God put in him rather than the thoughts and strategies that the people tried to push on him. He never let the circumstances affect him, he was a man whose soul trusted in HIM!
