Psa 20:1-3, …MAY THE LORD ANSWER YOU IN THE DAY OF TROUBLE; MAY THE NAME OF THE GOD OF JACOB DEFEND YOU; MAY HE SEND YOU HELP FROM THE SANCTUARY, AND STRENGTHEN YOU OUT OF ZION; MAY HE REMEMBER ALL YOUR OFFERINGS, AND ACCEPT YOUR BURNT SACRIFICE. SELAH
A spontaneous prayer for king David as he is about to go to war! HOW OFTEN DO WE LIFT UP OUR PASTORS AS THEY ALSO GO TO WAR? KEEP IN MIND WE ARE IN A WAR FOR SOULS AND THE ENEMY IS OUT TO SILENCE OUR VOICES! REMOVING OUR COMFORT SO WE CAN STAY HOME!
Psa 20:5, WE WILL REJOICE in your salvation, AND IN THE NAME OF OUR GOD WE WILL SET UP OUR BANNERS! MAY THE LORD FULFILL ALL YOUR PETITIONS.
THE PEOPLE HAD CONFIDENCE IN DAVID’S SUCCESS FOR THEY KNEW THEIR GOD! THE LORD IS ALWAYS WORKING EVEN USING THIS VIRUS TO SEND OUT HIS WORD TO THE WORLD! HIS WORD WILL NOT RETURN VOID!
Joh 5:17, But Jesus answered them, “MY FATHER HAS BEEN WORKING UNTIL NOW, AND I HAVE BEEN WORKING.”
This reminds me of the trouble of seen by Habakkuk! He prayed HOW LONG O LORD?
Hab 1:2-3, O LORD, HOW LONG shall I cry, And You will not hear? Even cry out to You, “Violence!” And You will not save.
The LORD responds!
Hab 1:5, “LOOK AMONG THE NATIONS AND Watch—BE UTTERLY ASTOUNDED! FOR I WILL WORK A WORK IN YOUR DAYS WHICH YOU WOULD NOT BELIEVE, THOUGH IT WERE TOLD YOU.
Psa 20:7, SOME TRUST IN CHARIOTS, AND SOME IN HORSES; BUT WE WILL REMEMBER THE NAME OF THE LORD OUR GOD.
The enemy may trust in their weapons, their position, their power and wealth, YET WE, AS CHRISTIANS, WILL PUT OUR TRUST IN THE LORD! FOR WE KNOW THAT HE WHO KEEPS US IN HIS HANDS DOESN’T SLEEP OR SLUMBER AND IS ALWAYS WORKING! PRAY FOR YOUR LEADERS, PRAY FOR GUIDANCE, PRAY FOR STRENGTH FOR THE TIME IS NEAR!
Psa 20:9, Save, LORD! MAY THE KING ANSWER US WHEN WE CALL.
