Psalm 30:1-12
30:1-3 When David felt defeated and spiritually dead, the Lord revived him. David marveled at the rescue. God is able to bring us from the brink, from the pit, and onto heights, life as we never experienced it before. Our God is a hearer and a healer. He does not just find empathy within Himself, He finds solutions around us.
30:4-5 David encouraged us to remember God and to remember to be grateful to Him for all that He is and does. God's generous and productive character constantly saves and plans for us. Even in moments of discipline, our best interests are His goal. He is always working for the betterment of our lives and character.
30:6-7 God made David strong; He made the peace and joy in his life sturdy, strong, immovable. Without God, David knew it would all disappear. For God is a our peace and joy.
30:8-10 David prayed for mercy; he felt that the loss of his life would only be a loss because he would not be there anymore to praise God. The intention of David's heart was to express love, reverence and gratitude to God. Loving God was David's favorite thing to do.
30:11-12 God is able to arrange complete reversals of the difficulties in our lives; He did so for David. He turned impossible situations into possible and prosperous ones. For that reason, David proclaimed that he would not go silent; he would praise God forever. His voice would endlessly reverberate, abound, his love and awe for God.
