Psalm 55:1-11 Give ear to my prayer O God, and do not hide yourself from my suppplication. Attend to me and hear me; I am restless in my complaint and moan noisily, becaue of the voice of the enemy. The psalmist was facing trouble. He was restless because of the voice of the enemy and the pressure of the wicked. Someone bore a grudge of hate against him. Anyon who has been faithful about seriously living for God has known trouble from others. What do we do? David was in such anguish he longed to give in and flee the situation. He longed ot have the wings like a dove so he could fly away and live in the wilderness to escape trouble. If you have know the heat in the kitchen of faithfulness , you have at some time just wanted out. However, the Lord does NOT call us to flee but to LIVE FAITHFULLY. We are NOT to run but to STAND. Do NOT take the coward's road, but find courage IN God. Circumstances are rulers of the weak, but they are weapon of the wise. Learn that emotions and resolves are NOT controlled by circumstances. To persist without exception becomes his battle cry. Do not long for the wings of a dove today. PERSIST! STAND ON THE SOLID GROUND OF GOD"S WORD...it is for eternity...For it is WITH God ALL things ARE POSSIBLE Matthew 19:26 Father God, guide me today to do all things that will bring GLORY and HONOR TO You AMEN TRUST IN GOD.. REST in the Lord, and CALL out to the Lord.
