Trust in God for Deliverance from Enemies
Psalm 5
To the leader: for the flutes. A Psalm of David.
Give ear to my words, O LORD;
give heed to my sighing.
Listen to the sound of my cry,
my King and my God,
for to you I pray.
O LORD, in the morning you hear my voice;
in the morning I plead my case to you, and watch.
Verses 4-7 deal with the kind of people that God will not listen to, and the type of behavior he can’t stand. Wicked, evil, deceitful, bloody, and willfully foolish people don’t get to draw close to God–he is repulsed by this kind of behavior.
Verse 8 makes it clear why the speaker started with a supplication then moved on to a description of evil people–he’s asking for deliverance from those evil people, almost like a tactic in a public debate, requesting attention, depicting a problem, then prompting someone to act upon the problem.
Dear Lord, Hear my Prayer
Wicked, evil, frauds, deceitful etc. people will never be close.
I placed this up early this morning before the enemy try to enter.

Fantastic verses. Of course, they are all fantastic.
