Psalms 54:7
Psalms 54:7
For he hath delivered me out of all trouble: and mine eye hath seen his desire upon mine enemies.
At certain times in life, we must have done something that got us into trouble. It might have happened at home, at school, or at work. People who have been in precarious and unpleasant circumstances in life and lived to tell the tale would understand the feelings of that experience. Imagine being accused at work of a crime you didn't commit, losing your job, losing respect in your workplace, and possibly losing your reputation. It can be a harrowing experience for the victim who will be hoping to find a means of escape from that situation. Life will put us in certain unpleasant situations, some of which may seem overwhelming. During times of trouble, we often feel hopeless, helpless, and weak. When we find ourselves in trouble, it is reasonable to seek help from God, just like the Psalmist. We should call upon the Lord and trust Him to come to our rescue. When we leave the matter in God's hands, He will vindicate and deliver us. Then will our mouths be filled with praise, songs of victory, and of relief from the hands of the enemy.
James 5:13
Is any among you afflicted? let him pray. Is any merry? let him sing psalms.
Matthew 26:41
Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.
Matthew 6:13
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.
John 14:13
And whatsoever ye shall ask in my name, that will I do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son.
