A Song to Teach (Psalm 60:1)
This psalm was written after a great victory in the life of David (v 1)
- Has God ever enabled you to be victorious over one sin or another?
- Have you ever been so joyful that you broke into praise?
- Did you use your victory as a lesson for others?
Note that victory, glorious victory, comes after great trouble (v 1-4)
- Feelings of being cast off and scattered by God
- Sensing God’s displeasure and aloofness
- Creation shaking and broken by our sin
- Observing hard times with astonishment
- Standing beneath the banner of the reverent and true
That banner declares: God will save His people (v 5)
- Doesn’t this encourage you to ask Him to save you?
- Doesn’t this give cause for rejoicing?
- Doesn’t this spur you to fight on against sin?
- Doesn’t this assure you that the previous trials are but temporary?
- Doesn’t this help you to look to God for help?
- Doesn’t this give God all the credit for our success?
