IN WHOM DO YOU TRUST?
Keywords 20:7
Some trust in chariots and some in horses,
but we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
1.
May the Lord grant all your requests (1-5)
Psalm 20 was a prayer for
salvation and victory for the king of Israel as he led the nation into battle.
Victory and salvation are ultimately not for political reasons, but to lift up
the name of God among the nations. The heart’s desire should be for God’s name to be lifted up. Our King
Jesus leads us into a spiritual war against our enemy Satan. We cannot defeat
Satan on our own, but Jesus leads us to certain victory. May Jesus’ desires be our desires. May he
grant our request for his kingdom to come to earth as it is in heaven.
2. We trust in the Lord (6-9)
The Lord saves by his own powerful
hand. We must prepare for the spiritual battle, but we cannot trust ourselves
or our techniques and methods. We can trust in someone greater - the Lord our
God. He brings the enemy to his knees and helps us to stand firm and upright.
Prayer Lord, thank you for ensuring
victory when we trust you. Put your desires in my heart.
One Word The
battle is the Lord’s
