– Psalm 25:20-21 -
This our last
day in Psalm 25 and we have learned so much.
David asks the Lord to guard His life.
Be my body guard he says. Make
sure no enemy or foe overcomes me.
Rescue me Lord, David asks. Only
God can rescue us from our foes and ourselves.
Remember our enemies are the world, the devil and ourselves. I say, ourselves because like God said to
Cain, “Sin is at the door of your heart, it wants to master you but you can
master it.” God helps and gives us power
to make the right choice.
Let me not be
put to shame. This is a constant theme
with David. He did not want to be
humbled before His enemies. If we humble
ourselves before the Lord we will never be humiliated.
David wanted
integrity and upright preserve him. He
also knows this was the way of success.
Integrity means you can always be trusted to make the right choice, do
the right thing and be honest in all situations. Righteousness is a protection. It guards our hearts. It is a breastplate of protection. All this gives David and us hope. Hope is always based on expectation of
someone we put our trust in will always come through. God always will come though. Praise God.
