Passage: Psalm 3
Today we are going to examine King David’s response to what seemed to be an impossible situation. He faced a formiddable army led by his own son, Absalom. The majority of his subjects had turned against him, believing God was no longer with David but with his son. How did David respond when all seemed to be lost? He cried out to God from the depth of his soul. He made his case before an almighty God. He knew his God was faithful to his word and would not desert him in times of trouble. This Psalm is a reminder to us that when faced with an impossible situation we must remember the God we belong to, who saved us, who is full of mercy and grace and who has promise to work all things for good for those who love him and are called according to his purpose.
