Psalm 59:1–7, “Deliver me from mine enemies, O my God: defend me from them that rise up against me. Deliver me from the workers of iniquity, and save me from bloody men. For, lo, they lie in wait for my soul: the mighty are gathered against me; not for my transgression, nor for my sin, O LORD. They run and prepare themselves without my fault: awake to help me, and behold. Thou therefore, O LORD God of hosts, the God of Israel, awake to visit all the heathen: be not merciful to any wicked transgressors. Selah. They return at evening: they make a noise like a dog, and go round about the city. Behold, they belch out with their mouth: swords are in their lips: for who, say they, doth hear?”

David was a good man, a loyal son and a person who loved the Lord God and his nation Israel. He delivered Israel from an urgent threat and saved the nation from destruction. In spite of this, he was persecuted and the people who should have been grateful and given him respect wanted to kill him. He wasn’t even safe in his own home. He asked the Lord to save him from his enemies and those who hated him without a cause. He told the Lord that people were trying to destroy him. Even though the Lord is Sovereign and knows everything, it is good for us to pray to Him and bring our issues to Him for it is good for us to know that we have left all our problems with the one Person Who is actually able to do something about them.
