Scripture Union Daily Guide 20 April 2022 MESSAGE
When things turn out right for us, we often become so happy that we forget to reflect on how we got there and thank the Lord who got us there. Not so with David. Reread vs.1‐7 and note at least five things that David thanks God for in his life. Think for a moment! What do you have to thank the Lord for in your life today?
Tell it to your family and friends. Sometimes it is easy to be successful in what we do but staying on the top may be quite a difficult task. We have so many fears that come our way about the good things we have or positions we occupy. David knew that when the Lord makes you successful, he establishes you. What can your enemies do? The Lord will fight for you and deal decisively with your adversaries (vs.8‐10).
Reflect for a moment and see the battles the Lord has fought for you and how He successfully delivered you in all those battles. In the light of such great deliverance, how should you face the future? What position should God take in your life? If your enemies temporarily succeed how should you handle that (vs.11‐12)?
Practice/Word Application
So what? Kneel and praise the Lord for what He has done to you.
