Psalm 20

A Bible Devotion from Psalm 20

We Will Remember the Name of the Lord our God

Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed; He will answer him from His holy heaven with the saving strength of His right hand. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God. They have bowed down and fallen; but we have risen and stand upright.
Psalm 20:6-8, NKJV

The first five verses of this Psalm begin with a blessing from David illustrating His complete understanding of where our true strength, victories over sin, and everything our heart desires, as Christians, comes from. Often times we are prone to forget this.

If we are in trouble, call out to the Lord for help. If we are weak, discouraged, depressed, or overcome by our circumstances of life, call out to the Lord for help. Because of the Lord's great love for His true saints, He is always available to help and guide us in the way we should go.

Understanding this, brings us to that glorious testimony of David found in verse 7. Some trust in chariots, and some in horses; but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.

Pray today that God would surround you with an awareness of His constant presence and peace, and that you would cry out to Him for help, even in the small things. God cares so much for His children that no request is too small, and no child of His is too unimportant for Him to hear and answer.

What an amazing God we have!
