This psalm helps me to remember when trails come and they will. I can go and find comforter and peace in the presence of the Lord. When I have tried everything else I can come to the garden where my Lord awaits for me. See he said that in His presence their is fullness of joy, my joy is in Him and Him alone. I can come to my Lord even in the mist of my trouble mind and I find great hope and love and I can sense His presence right there with me. My soul thirst for you as in a dry and weary land, when troubles of my spirit have overwhelm me I can go to find renew strength and peace. This psalm along with the 23rd psalm re***ures of my peace and joy in the Lord is complete only in HIM.
When you are going through tough times don't stop praising him and don't stop talking with him because it is in those tough times that we desire to hear from God the most.
@Marcus,
That section says:
“9 But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.
10 They shall fall by the sword: they shall be a portion for foxes.”
There can be 2 meanings for the expression “a portion for foxes”:
Either seeing one’s enemies killed by the sword in the battle fields and their carcasses become meat for foxes.
Or God judgment (the word of God is a two-edged sword) standing against them, they are exposed to attacks from the devil (wolves, foxes, roaring lions, etc..).
God bless you.
I am reading from the new King James version and in my view it says to me that my soul thirsts for God and my flesh longs for him. My mouth shall sing praises unto you because you have been my help and my salvation. My soul follows closely behind Him and His right hand upholds me.
what could i say me personally use to go days without giving God any sort of recognition and God still have be alive today and i thank God that he open up my eyes that without him Im nothing my living is in vain the devil only attacking you because he know the great gift God has for you and how special you are in God sight and he trys he hardest to take tthat away from us Im saying to you dont let him .
HOW many times should i have been dead.I really didnt give JESUS recognition at most of these times,but HE was there.IN HIS HANDS OF PROTECTION and umbrella of HIS WINGS was where i was at and didnt even acknowledge HIM.NOW i do to the best of my limited abilities.THANK YOU JESUS!
i love this psalm. what a way to start my morning meditation and devotion unto the Lord. True praise and worship! Lord you are first and foremost...i will forever praise your name.
