Behold the power of God in the Psalms!

The future proves the past.

Psalm 108

Praise and Prayer for Victory

A Song. A Psalm of David.

108 My heart is steadfast, O God,

my heart is steadfast!

I will sing and make melody!

Awake, my soul!

2 Awake, O harp and lyre!

I will awake the dawn!

3 I will give thanks to thee, O Lord, among the peoples,

I will sing praises to thee among the nations.

4 For thy steadfast love is great above the heavens,

thy faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

5 Be exalted, O God, above the heavens!

Let thy glory be over all the earth!

6 That thy beloved may be delivered,

give help by thy right hand, and answer me!

7 God has promised in his sanctuary:

“With exultation I will divide up Shechem,

and portion out the Vale of Succoth.

8 Gilead is mine; Manas′seh is mine;

E′phraim is my helmet;

Judah my scepter.

9 Moab is my washbasin;

upon Edom I cast my shoe;

over Philistia I shout in triumph.”

10 Who will bring me to the fortified city?

Who will lead me to Edom?

11 Hast thou not rejected us, O God?

Thou dost not go forth, O God, with our armies.

12 O grant us help against the foe,

for vain is the help of man!

13 With God we shall do valiantly;

it is he who will tread down our foes.
