“I will praise you, Lord, among the nations;
I will sing of you among the peoples.
For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.”
Psalm 57:9-11
I will sing of you among the peoples.
For great is your love, reaching to the heavens;
your faithfulness reaches to the skies.
Be exalted, O God, above the heavens;
let your glory be over all the earth.”
Psalm 57:9-11
In Psalm 57, David shows gratitude to God for providing refuge, love and
faithfulness. God’s faithfulness and covenant love are related and He is
faithful in keeping His promises. As one of the characteristics of God’s
nature, faithfulness denotes the consistency of God with His people. He is
unchanging - the same yesterday, today and tomorrow!
Just as God is faithful and loving, believers need to show faithfulness and
love in their lives. It is the Spirit which enables us to see God’s faithfulness
and remain faithful to and dependent upon Him. We are comforted by
God’s nature, promises and grace when we begin each day offering both
prayer and gratitude to Him.
