Have you ever been torn to pieces by persecution, or felt attacked on all sides? Well, you're in good company, David, the writer of this Psalm, was too. David ran to God, who defends the innocent. As a theme for this Psalm I put "God is just and rescues His own."

I think it's interesting that we see in v. 14-16 that people who conceive trouble and give "birth to lies" reap what they sow. God is able to protect those whose hearts turn fully to Him. This Psalm reminds me to let the Lord sort it out when people persecute, lie about or stir up trouble for me or my family and friends.

What part of this Psalm spoke to you?
