Psalm 7-8 I will bless the Lord, who has given me counsel: my reins also instruct me in the night seasons. I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved.
The Enemy of souls uses the devil, the world, and our own flesh to afflict and assail us. David responds to life’s troubles with faith, praise, and prayer. In the midst of enemy attacks and in every circumstance he responds with blessing, listens to God’s advice and instruction, puts the Lord first, and acknowledges His presence to help.
Because he is mindful of the Lord’s Presence he will not be shaken. He feels a unique sense of security. God does not exempt believers from the daily circumstances of life. Both believers and unbelievers experience pain, trouble, and failure, but those who seek the Lord can move ahead confidently with what they know is right and important in God’s eyes. God will keep them from being moved off his chosen path. This is the kind of confidence and strength we have been given for all times.
