Today's psalm's theme is one of victory and with God's help we can do more than we think.
Verse 1 begins with My heart is steadfast O God. I will sing and make music with all my soul. I love music, it stirs my emotions, words of songs sometimes express much better than I can say myself. On 9/12/2001 Members of congress spontaneously began to sing God Bless America on the capital steps the day after our county was attacked in NYC. In times of trial with God's help he will guide us to victory.
It is good to praise God for all that he has done. Verses 6 - 9 the psalmist tells us of the battles won with the help of God.
Verses 10-13 the psalmist asks who will help us gain victory even after we have turned from God then came back to him. God will help us win victories.
Father God we thank you this day that with a steadfast heart you will help us in times of distress. You will guide us into victory. We have seen the good things you have done for us in the past, and we know you will help us in the present and in the future. Let us be bold and sing of your praises. We thank you for the gift of music to help express our joys and sorrows. In Jesus name we pray, Amen.
