“IN THE MORNING!”

 

Psalm 5:1-3                 (ESV)

Lead Me in YOUR Righteousness

To the choirmaster: for the flutes. A Psalm of David.

    “[1] Give EAR to my words, O LORD;

        consider my groaning. 

    [2] Give ATTENTION to the sound of my cry,

        my KING and my GOD,

        for to YOU do I pray. 

    [3] O LORD, “IN THE MORNING” YOU hear my voice;

        “IN THE MORNING” I prepare a sacrifice for YOU AND WATCH.”

King David began this Psalm pleading with THE LORD to Give EAR to his pleading and groaning!  It is EVIDENT to say that King David understood that the ONLY ONE WHO had the power and authority to get him out of the predicament that he was experiencing was THE CREATOR OF THE UNIVERSES!!!

Notice that David writes “IN THE MORNING”, or when everything is starting for a new day, he needed THE ALMIGHTY to direct his thoughts and mind!!  Most of the time I begin my day without thinking that GOD in HEAVEN, busy with the “cares of this world”, might not be concerned with an insignificant being in an insignificant place?  But John 17:23 says “I (JESUS) in them and YOU (THE FATHER) in , that they may become PERFECTLY ONE, so that the world may know that YOU sent ME  and LOVED THEM even as YOU loved ME.”  GOD IN THE FLESH freely gave HIMSELF on Calvary’s tree to PURCHASE Salvation for this “insignificant” creature, so HE CARES ABOUT ME!!!

HEARING the Stillness and Quietness (silence ) of before the birds start chirping, traffic begins to make noise, and everything starts trying to gain our attention is a TREASURE that isn’t duplicated by anything in “this world”! Maybe that is why I awake sometimes “very early in the morning” and can HEAR instructions from HIM, when distractions are limited….”IN THE MORNING”???
