Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those whose heart is steadfast. In Jesus’ name, amen.
David’s psalm is very much like a prayer.
His words are filled with emotion as he says he will sing, make melody, add musical instruments, and praise God among the nations.
Psalm 108:1-6 involves vivid description that takes us into God’s presence.
“My heart is steadfast, O God!
I will sing and make melody with all my being!
Awake, O harp and lyre!
I will awake the dawn!
I will give thanks to you, O Lord, among the peoples;
I will sing praises to you among the nations.
For your steadfast love is great above the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!
Let your glory be over all the earth!
That your beloved ones may be delivered,
give salvation by your right hand and answer me!”
David’s heart is unwavering. How is your heart? Is there a song of praise or thanksgiving that comes to mind?
Exalt God. Consider the first words of “Come Let Us Worship and Bow Down.”
“Come, let us worship and bow down And kneel before the Lord, our Maker”
Give God all the glory.
