—Psalm 27:11-14
by: Linda Harris.
J. Vernon McGee paraphrased Psalm 27:11: “I want a good testimony before the enemy, because I know he will criticize me. I want You to watch over me, Lord, and help me not to embarrass You by what I do.” That’s an essential prayer for every Christian.
Criticism runs rampant in our society, and it’s not easy to bear. Have you been criticized lately? How have you handled it? Defensiveness rarely works. Instead, wait on God to take control of the situation (27:14).
