Psalm 20 & 21 -- Remembering Experiencing God

This psalm is special to me because it contains a verse that Henry Blackaby used in Experiencing God, a Bible Study that God used more than anything else to draw me back to Him:  “Some trust in chariots, others in horse, but WE trust the Lord our God.

Although my commentary says that this is a prayer before battle, I like to imagine David saying it to me, reminding me of what he had discovered in his covenant with God.  “May the Lord answer you in times of trouble.  May the God of Jacob protect you.  May He send you help from His Temple, and support you from Mount Zion.  May He remember all your offerings and accept all your sacrifices.  May He give you what you want and make all your plans succeed … May the Lord give you all that You ask for.  Now I know the Lord helps … He answers … and savesSome trust in chariots, others in horses, but WE trust the Lord our God …we march forward and win …Answer us when we call for help.”

Wow!  Powerful stuff today, Father!  I know that You watch over me and listen to my prayers.  You answer when I ask in Your will.  I trust You God!

Your Brother In Christ,
