Psalm 27:3 ” Though an army besiege me, my heart will not fear; though war break out against me, even then will I be confident.”

In this Psalm, King David is describing an enemy encampment set up around him and his men. But instead of focusing on the overwhelming threat, he displays peace and courage…a bold and hopeful confidence in spite of what he sees. “I will not fear the tens of thousands drawn up against me on every side.” (Psalm 3:6) Now, we may not have a physical army besieging us today, but it can certainly feel that way. So we need to follow David’s example of turning fear into faith…pain into purpose…and conflict into confidence…always remembering that God preserves the righteous. (Job 4:6-11)
