Psalm 56

1Be merciful unto me, O God: for man would swallow me up; he fighting daily oppresseth me.

2Mine enemies would daily swallow me up: for they be many that fight against me, O thou most High.

3What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee.

4In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.

5Every day they wrest my words: all their thoughts are against me for evil.

6They gather themselves together, they hide themselves, they mark my steps, when they wait for my soul.

7Shall they escape by iniquity? in thine anger cast down the people, O God.

8Thou tellest my wanderings: put thou my tears into thy bottle: are they not in thy book?

9When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back: this I know; for God is for me.

10In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.

11In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.

12Thy vows are upon me, O God: I will render praises unto thee.

13For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?

"In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me."
God as long as I trust in You...what is there to be afraid of? I will not fear man, or the circumstances of life. Because You reign over them all.

"For thou hast delivered my soul from death: wilt not thou deliver my feet from falling, that I may walk before God in the light of the living?"
God God...You have given us salvation when You died on the Cross for us. Now help us to walk in Your light Lord. For the core of our beings are sinful and unworthy, left to ourselves we will commit grievous evils and destroy ourselves. In Your lovingkindess and grace give us the will to want to do good, help us to crucify our old man each day and be resurrected along with You. Help us God to walk before You in the light of the living. For without You we are helpless.
