18.3.23 Psalm 51 Reflection
With the focus on King David’s prayer- Psalm 51, the main idea of the psalm was reflection of heart. Moreover, the four ways we can do this is by:
1.Closeness to God: Like King David drew close to God since his youth. we should too.
2.Vigilance with God: As King David sinned when he became too complacent with his luxurious lifestyle: we must be vigilant to not be complacent in our daily lives.
3. Realization: When Nathan the prophet helped King David realize his sin of adultery with Bathsheba and murder of Uriah, King David was open to repent. Likewise, we have the Holy Spirit to guide us to repent and confess our sins.
4. Holding on to the promises of God: Just like King David trusted in the promise to experience God’s mercies and compassions, we can hold God to these promises- always.
Glory be to God. Forever. Amen.
