I love reading from the book of Psalms. There is always something that can resonate with you whatever mindset you find yourself in — whether you’re in times of need or in times of praising God.

1. Strength in Time of Trouble

If you’re dealing with tough times today, trust that you’ll find your help and salvation from the Lord. He will be your strength. He will give you the grace, peace, and comfort that you need in time of trouble. “The principal issue here is not regeneration but sanctification — the daily deliverance of God’s people from temptation and evil. The Psalm concludes with the righteous trusting God, like chicks running to the wings of their mother.” (See: Ps. 17:8, 36:7) [Source: TNSB]

But the salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
He is their strength in the time of trouble. (Psalm 37:39, NKJV)

2. God is Your Hiding Place

Take refuge and hide in the Lord. He will preserve you from trouble. Isn’t it a beautiful word picture that the Psalmist writes God will surround you with songs of deliverance? I love that!

You are my hiding place;
You shall preserve me from trouble;
You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah (Psalm 32:7, NKJV)
