Why does God bless His people? Is it for their comfort and enjoyment? Not according to Psalm 67. In this song, the people ask God for His blessings so that they can become mediator's of his riches by blessing the nations and drawing them back to the source of all blessing--their God.

Psalm 63 opens with the line: "You, God, are my God, earnestly I seek you; I thirst for you, my whole being longs for you, in a dry and parched land where there is no water." Let's consider the earnest pleading of this prayer as David desperately reaches for God.

When all that needs to be prayed has been prayed, sometimes the only thing believers can do is silently wait for God. Psalm 62 represents David's silent waiting where he tries to convince himself of truths he believes but is having difficulty fully embracing because of his difficult circumstances.

Sometimes the emotional distress of the psalmists is so intense that they cry out for God to hurt and even kill their enemies. These imprecatory psalms can be difficult for Christians to read, especially in light of the teachings of Jesus who said that His disciples should love their enemies. Psalm 58 is one of those graphic psalms in which David asks God to bring about an extraordinary act of judgement.
