TOPIC: GETTING HEAVEN’S ATTENTION

TEXT: Psalm 17:1-15

KEY VERSE: “Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.” – (Psalm 17:1)

DCLM Daily Manna 6th March 2022 | MESSAGE:

Bible scholars identify the historical background of this plaintive composition as the period when David was on one of his numerous flights from Saul’s murderous campaigns to eliminate him. He and the hundreds of crack fighters that were faithful to him were in danger of being slaughtered by Saul’s hounds. There was nowhere to hide, as the king appeared to be closing in on them wherever they sought shelter. But David knew where to seek unfailing protection – the throne of God. He knew how to reach Him and secure His attention.

David was aware that it was not enough to be in trouble and run to the Lord for help. Certainly, God is the ultimate Expert in delivering the oppressed. But the seeker of help from heaven must meet some cardinal conditions. He must be free from sin and not be a hypocrite.

Having fulfilled these conditions, David boldly approached the Lord with his demands. He requested, “Keep me as the apple of the eye, hide me under the shadow of thy wings, From the wicked that oppress me, from my deadly enemies, who compass me about”. Believers are in more need of this divine protection because the world is in a worse state of alienation from God, and Satan is fighting hard to alienate more people.

Those in one difficult situation or the other can seek the Lord’s help. But they must ensure their prayer is one “that goeth not out of feigned lips” in order to get heaven’s attention. Believers must have confidence in God’s unfailing power to protect them from all adversaries.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: God listens when sin is taken out.

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Jeremiah 5-6
