We have many thoughts and ideas about God and we use these in prayer to Him who holds the universe in the palm of His hands. Over and over David echoes those thoughts as he pens these psalms for us to read and meditate upon. One psalm we recently read said that our tongue is like a pen ready to write these words. Today as we enter the quiet room of David’s thoughts we are once again brought to the throne room of God and see His power and majesty. He protects, He guides, He looks down upon man to see his needs which He provides.
David notes: “Why do you boast about your evil plans, O powerful man? God’s loyal love protects me all day long.” Men have evil hearts but God’s love for His own is front and center and what we can cling to in times we find ourselves held fast by words and actions of the evil ones about us. Paul noted that in the first chapter of Philippians when he was imprisoned. Paul wrote to the Philippians not to be frightened but those who know God can trust that no matter what comes our way, His love is stronger and present because He rescues His own.
Is He your rescuer? What frightens you today. One of the ladies at the Assisted Living answered that she is frightened by being alone even though she has many about her. Perhaps you can relate, if so, tuck this psalm in your diary for today. His love is loyal and stronger and protects all day long.
