God Is Faithful

Psalm 59 was written by David. Saul had sent men with orders to kill David. 1 Samuel 19:11-18. 

Verses 16-17 says, “But I will sing of Your power; yes, I will sing aloud of Your mercy in the morning; for You have been my defense and refuge in the day of my trouble. To You, O my Strength, I will sing praises; for God is my defense, my God of mercy.”

Psalm 89:1 says, “I will sing of the mercies of the Lord forever; with my mouth will I make known Your faithfulness to all generations.”

I have been memorizing Psalm 119:73-80. Are you in a trial now? Verse 75 says, “I know, O Lord, that Your judgements are right, and that in faithfulness You have afflicted me.” No matter how hard our trials are, the Lord uses them to confirm us to His image. See Romans 8:28-29. 

Yesterday I worked on verse 76. I am still rejoicing in these two words together ‘merciful kindness.’

It says, Let, I pray, Your merciful kindness be for my comfort, according to Your word to Your servant.”

May the Lord’s merciful kindness sustain you as He faithfully upholds you in your trials.
