Reading along with us through Psalm 61-70? Here’s today’s reading:
Psalm 70 (ESV)

O Lord, make haste to help me!

who seek my life!

Psalm 70:4 (ESV)
May all who seek you rejoice and be glad in you! May those who love your salvation say evermore, “God is great!”
No matter what happens around us if we keep our focus on God and worship him we then will find help from Him.
4 May all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you!
May those who love your salvation
say evermore, “God is great!”❤️
Fair amount of comfort in this prayer , imagine many of us have prayed this same theme in our own words
4 May all who seek you
rejoice and be glad in you!
May those who love your salvation
say evermore, “God is great!”
5 But I am poor and needy;
hasten to me, O God!
You are my help and my deliverer;
O Lord, do not delay!
A very short but heartfelt Psalm here. We can afford to love our enemies because we like David can cast our enemies on God for Him to take care of them. Vengeance is His because He knows what is best to draw men to Him. And He is a refuge to us as we suffer at the hands of our enemies. What a great comfort to be on His side and have Him by ours.
