April 3 – Psalm 7:1 – Our refuge

 April 3 – Psalm 7:1 – Our refuge David in this Psalm has made a decision to make the Lord His refuge. Now through the nation of Israel during David`s time there were many natural refuges. Israel is a country filled with mountains. It was also at that time filled with many treed areas. There were many places to go and hide and find sanctuary. David proved this for over ten years as he was running from Saul. David knew the Lord was His refuge, place of safety and fortress. David during his lifetime has many enemies. His cry was that the Lord would save him from all those that pursue Him. He knew that in his own strength he could fail but in the protection and strength of the Lord He would not fail. David knew the Lord was his help and hiding place. Do you know that today as you go throughout your day? Let the Lord be your refuge, help and foundation today. Let Him deal with all your enemies and those that would try to harm you. Let the Lord take vengeance and pay each one back according to their work.

April 1- Psalm 30:5 – Joy comes in the Morning

 April 1- Psalm 30:5 – Joy comes in the Morning This is such a great verse and psalm. This is a psalm of dedication for the temple. It is by David. It talks about the favour and wrath of God. David writes here that the Lord`s wrath or anger lasts for only a moment. Of course in that moment you do not want to stand in the face of that wrath. Yet the wonderful thing is that the Lord always balances His anger and wrath with mercy and love. David knew what the wrath and anger of God was when he committed his sin with Bathsheba and had her husband killed. He lost a child and the sword never left his home. Yet also he was able to live and out of their next union Solomon was born. David then states that the favor of the Lord lasts a lifetime. When God covenants with a person that favor and love, lasts a lifetime. God will not go back on His agreement. Then David gives a wonderful promise. Sorrow and weeping may be for a night but joy comes in the morning. What you are facing is not the sum total of your life. Bad things do come but they do not stay. They will pass. The darkness of night always gives way to the beauty of the morning. God will be faithful in your dark hour and in the morning of His love you will rejoice. Remember that during those long nights of sorrow. God will give you a new dawn of rejoicing and victory.
