Sound of a Heartbeat Joel Angelis

David prays for deliverance from death in Psalm 6:4-5, appealing to God's steadfast love. Learn what these verses mean and how it applies to your prayer life and the hope that the Christian has even when faced with suffering and death.

Psalm 6 is the first of seven psalms often called the Penitential Psalms. In this episode we look at the first three verses as we unpack why David wrote this and what it means for us.

Christian, you are covered with the Lord's favour as with a shield. Learn about this prayer of David for protection in Psalm 5:11-12.

In Psalm 5:9-10 we read a prayer of David for the guilt of his enemies and the wicked people in his day to bear their guilt from the Lord. How can we understand this in the current political context today?

In the midst of trial, of being surrounded or pursued or slandered by enemies, amidst persecution, and wrestling with our flesh, may our prayer be for God to lead us in his righteousness, that we wouldn't respond in our own emotions or our own wisdom, but submit ourselves wholly to him.

Instead of treating our walk with Christ as a casual lifestyle, may we look to God for who he is and fall to our knees in worship and reverence for him.
