The God of Psalm 59 Who Hears Your Prayers

Today’s Bible reading is Psalm 59, a psalm written by David “when Saul sent men to watch his house in order to kill him.” In what had to have been a terrifying time in his life, it’s worth noting how David describes the One to whom he is praying:

• LORD God of hosts (59:5)
• My Strength (59:9)
• My fortress (59:9)
• Our shield (59:11)
• The God who shows me steadfast love (59:17)

This is the God who hears your prayers today.

• The all-present God of angel armies
• The God who cannot be defeated
• The God of refuge for the soul
• The God who shields his people beneath his own wings
• The God who loves to such a degree that he would send his own Son to make it all possible

What a blessing and privilege to confidently address the God of Psalm 59 in prayer today!
