Psalm 5 is written for people who find themselves disoriented, dizzy, and desperate. It is written for people frantic to find a fixed point on which to focus their heart and mind. It is written for people anxiously searching for something immovable to give them stability, clarity, and peace. This being his aim, David wastes no time in pointing us to the LORD as the most dependable stationary, immovable, and fixed source of stability, clarity and peace.
