God's Holy Words - Psalm 20
Mankind trusts in weapons and wars but David knew that beyond that reality was an ultimate reality in which we must trust on the Lord. In your life do you trust in money, or your intellect more than your trust in God. We can never bear the weight of life's difficulties. When we do we burn out and become depressed and anxious. Learn to trust God. Begin by prayer and reading scripture, find other like minded Christians to share your life with.
For the director of music. A psalm of David.
1 May the Lord answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you. 2 May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion. 3 May he remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt offerings.[b] 4 May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed. 5 May we shout for joy over your victory and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the Lord grant all your requests.
6 Now this I know: The Lord gives victory to his anointed. He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary with the victorious power of his right hand. 7 Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. 8 They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm. 9 Lord, give victory to the king! Answer us when we call!
