This is Guthrie Chamberlain, Your Guide to Wisdom Day 2603 – Wisdom Nuggets – Psalm 56:8-13 – Daily Wisdom Wisdom-Trek Podcast Script - Day 2603 Welcome to Wisdom-Trek with Gramps! I am Guthrie Chamberlain, and we are on Day 2603 of our Trek. The Purpose of Wisdom-Trek is to create a legacy of wisdom, to seek out discernment and insights, and to boldly grow where few have chosen to grow before. In today's Wisdom Nugget, I'll guide you along the path of wisdom, encouragement, and strength as we journey together through God's Word. Thank you again for joining me as we continue exploring the Psalms—rich in wisdom, authenticity, and hope. Today, we're completing our exploration of Psalm 56 by focusing specifically on verses 8 through 13. Psalm 56 is one of those deeply personal Psalms written by King David in a time of great fear and vulnerability. Captured by enemies in Gath, David faced overwhelming danger, yet his honest emotions and unwavering faith in God provide profound insight into how we can respond to fear, pain, and uncertainty today. Let's start by reading Psalm 56:8-13 from the New Living Translation: 8 You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book. 9 My enemies will retreat when I call to you for help. This I know: God is on my side! 10 I praise God for what he has promised; yes, I praise the Lord for what he has promised. 11 I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me? 12 I will fulfill my vows to you, O God, and will offer a sacrifice of thanks for your help. 13 For you have rescued me from death; you have kept my feet from slipping. So now I can walk in your presence, O God, in your life-giving light. God's Tender Compassion (Verse 8) David begins this section with a beautiful and comforting image of God's intimate care: “You keep track of all my sorrows. You have collected all my tears in your bottle. You have recorded each one in your book.” This verse is profoundly moving and deeply comforting. David vividly portrays God not as a distant observer but as intimately involved in every detail of our lives. He uses poetic language, reflecting an ancient custom where mourners collected tears in small bottles as a way of remembering their grief. David imagines God doing this very thing—not literally, of course, but symbolically. It shows that God sees, understands, and values our deepest pain. In ancient Israelite culture, recording important events in a book signified permanence, remembrance, and value. David applies this practice metaphorically, affirming God's close attention to our grief and struggles. Every tear is remembered, every sorrow acknowledged. This reveals God's profound compassion and care. Illustration: Imagine a loving parent comforting a crying child after a painful experience. The parent carefully wipes each tear, holding the child close. Though tears themselves evaporate quickly, the child's emotional pain is remembered, comforted, and cared for by the parent. David's imagery suggests the same profound, intimate care from God. Application: Have you ever felt your struggles or sorrows were unseen or...

We continue our adventure through the Psalms, stepping into the powerful and emotional Psalm 56. Today, we're looking specifically at verses 1 through 7. In this Psalm, we find David in a time of deep fear and distress, yet even in the middle of those emotions, he vividly shows us how faith and trust in God overcome even our greatest anxieties. Psalm 56 is a prayer for help, written by David during one of the most challenging moments in his life—when he was captured by the Philistines in the city of Gath. Facing very real enemies and intense fear, David turns his eyes upward, anchoring himself in God's protection. Let's begin by reading Psalm 56:1-7 from the New Living Translation: 1 O God, have mercy on me, for people are hounding me. My foes attack me all day long. 2 I am constantly hounded by those who slander me, and many are boldly attacking me. 3 But when I am afraid, I will put my trust in you. 4 I praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me? 5 They are always twisting what I say; they spend their days plotting to harm me. 6 They come together to spy on me— watching my every step, eager to kill me. 7 Don't let them get away with their wickedness; in your anger, O God, bring them down. David's Cry for Mercy Amid Threats (Verses 1-2) Psalm 56 begins with David's earnest plea for mercy and help: “O God, have mercy on me, for people are hounding me. My foes attack me all day long. I am constantly hounded by those who slander me, and many are boldly attacking me.” These opening verses powerfully express David's distress. Notice the repetition—“hounding me," “attack me," “constantly hounded,” and “boldly attacking me.” David is clearly overwhelmed, surrounded, and relentlessly pursued. To fully grasp David's emotional state, we must remember his situation historically. At the time he penned Psalm 56, David was fleeing King Saul, who was obsessed with killing him. Ironically, David ran to Gath—home of his greatest enemy, the Philistines—hoping for refuge. But instead, he was seized by King Achish's servants, who remembered vividly that David had previously slain Goliath, their hometown champion. In ancient Israelite culture, being pursued by enemies wasn't merely an inconvenience—it represented life-threatening danger. David was trapped between his own jealous king and foreign enemies, both eager to end his life. Feeling cornered, betrayed, and utterly vulnerable, David cries urgently to God for mercy. Illustration: Picture a deer frantically pursued by hunters, fleeing through...

In our last reading King Balak of Moab had hired Balaam, the professional soothsayer and prophet for hire, to come and put a curse on Israel. The king had heard about how Israel had plowed through the Amorites when that nation refused to let Israel pass through, and he was scared. After two attempts, Balaam finds himself unable to curse Israel, because the God of Israel is so powerful that Balaam must do as the Lord says. Our reading today begins with Balaam's third and final attempt to curse Israel, but instead, when proclaiming a fourth oracle, he prophesies the coming of the Christ. Many scholars believe that this prophecy of the star that comes from Jacob was passed down to the Magi of the gospels, who see the star and travel to see the Christ child.Numbers 24 - 1:05 . Numbers 25 - 6:26 . Numbers 26 - 9:20 . Psalm 56 - 15:55 .  :::Christian Standard Bible translation.All music written and produced by John Burgess Ross.Co-produced by the Christian Standard Bible.facebook.com/commuterbibleinstagram.com/commuter_bibletwitter.com/CommuterPodpatreon.com/commuterbibleadmin@commuterbible.org

When we come across “what can man do to me” in our Bible reading, it sounds a little flippant doesn't it? Men and women do an awful lot of terrible things to other men and women. There is plenty to fear in this fallen world. But this phrase came from David while people were actively chasing him with the intent to kill him. How can he say such a thing? Stop running for a second and you will see what man can do to you! One of the wonderful things about the Psalms is how honest they are about the struggles of life. In Psalm 56 we'll see the hero David, of “David and Goliath” fame, admitting he's afraid of very real and present danger. But we'll also see how David doesn't rely on his ingenuity, strength, or past successes to alleviate his fear, instead he runs to the God who has rescued him time and time again. Join us Sunday to learn from David how to deal with the fears in your own life, even if you aren't being actively chased by people trying to kill you.   In Christ, Kevin Campbell, Elder

In today's reflection, Dani Crowley explores Psalm 56, where David turns to God as his fortress in the face of fear. As David trusts in God's protection, we are reminded that we can find safety and refuge in Him, no matter the circumstances. Reflect on God's faithfulness and pray for His strength in times of fear.--Support content like this and the vision of Sandals Church at http://sandalschurch.com/support/Join our email list for content updates: http://sandalschurch.com/subscribeDownload the Sandals Church App: http://sandalschurch.com/app/If you have questions, need prayer or want to get connected, please email us anytime at online@sandalschurch.com!

Sermon 1 of 9 in Series through Selected Psalms

Professor Emeritus John Pfeiffer

Are you wearing a temporary mask or a permanent one? Welcome to the Daily Devo. I am Vince Miller. This week, we are in Chapter 21 of 1 Samuel. I've titled this chapter "Man On The Run." Yesterday, David ran to Gath, the former home of Goliath, with Goliath's sword. The King of Gath realizes he is there, so let's see what David decides to do next. Let's read 1 Samuel 21:12-15: And David took these words to heart and was much afraid of Achish the king of Gath. So he changed his behavior before them and pretended to be insane in their hands and made marks on the doors of the gate and let his spittle run down his beard. Then Achish said to his servants, "Behold, you see the man is mad. Why then have you brought him to me? Do I lack madmen, that you have brought this fellow to behave as a madman in my presence? Shall this fellow come into my house?" — 1 Samuel 21:10-12 So we discover that David is not just a shepherd, poet, musician, lover, and warrior but also an actor. Is there anything this strapping young man cannot do? And it is believable! He drools on himself and writes a little graffiti on the city's walls, and the King falls for it. David is labeled a madman. I assume that since he had seen King Saul act like a madman and got away with it, maybe he assumed he could get away with it, too. I don't know for sure, but it worked! But what captured my attention today is the stark contrast between Saul's tactics in Gibeah and David's in Gath. Saul surrounds himself with sanity to hide his insanity. David uses insanity to hide his sanity. For some reason, Achish's pronouncement of his insanity provides him with temporary safety until he can escape to the coming location. Occasionally, wearing a temporary mask is necessary in life-threatening situations. Enemies surrounded David; therefore, temporary pretending was needed to preserve his life. The problem is that many use this tactic as a perpetual means to maintain a persona that is not remotely true. Therefore, their playacting becomes a perpetual lie they tell about themselves. But this is not true of David. David's act was only temporary. While publicly pretending, he privately anchored his mind and soul to the truth about God in God's Word (as revealed this week in Psalm 34 and Psalm 56). This was not a permanent act by David, only temporary until he found a means of escape. If you must wear a mask as a temporary shield against an enemy, do so sparingly. Don't fake it until you make it, and then continue with the act only to become a fake. And since this is usually not needed, stop pretending, be authentic, take off the mask, and trust in God. #DavidOnTheRun, #AuthenticityInFaith, #TrustingGod Ask This: In what areas of your life do you feel pressured to wear a mask or pretend to be someone you're not? How can you seek God's truth to find your authentic self? David used a temporary act to escape danger, but he anchored his heart to God's truth. How can you balance the need for self-protection in difficult situations with a commitment to living authentically in your faith? Do This: Stop pretending and take off the mask. Pray This: Father, help me discern when it's necessary to wear a temporary mask for my protection while staying rooted in Your truth. Grant me the courage to remove false facades and embrace my authentic self as I navigate life's challenges. Amen. Play This: Let My Life Be Worship.
