—Psalm 5
by: Gem Barton.
This is a prayer of protection from the wicked. David asked God to take up his cause and fight on his behalf against the evil that surrounded him. All through his life, before and after he became king, when David experienced danger, he recognized God as his source of deliverance. After he was delivered, he sang praise and thanks to God. Who is your source of deliverance? To whom do you cry in the morning? Trust in the Lord for He will shelter the righteous with favor as a shield. The name of the Lord is a strong tower in which the righteous are safe (Proverbs 18:10).
