May 20 – Call to the Lord – Psalm 55:16-18
This is again a maskil or chorus of David`s thoughts. David makes a powerful statement of faith. I am going to call to the Lord and He will hear me. David had such a close relationship with the Lord he knew even before he prayed that God would answer. That is relationship. That is friendship. David had prayer times in the morning and evening. These are the best times to get away from distractions. Daniel prayed three times a day. The issue is not so much the frequency of prayer but that you pray. David shows this habit in many of his psalms. This gives us a glimpse into the devotional life of David. How is yours?
David speaks of a battle raging against him. In David’s case it was most likely an enemy or nation. The one thing David knew is that the Lord would protect Him and keep Him. He would not be defeated in the Lord. This is your promise today as you go out into your world. One final thought as your go out today. Plan to spend more time with the Lord in His word and in prayer. These are always valuable time to strengthen yourself for the battles of life and remember you enemy is not physical and so your solution is in the Lord.
