RACHAM: Tender Mercies – The Wonder of God’s Mercy

My God in his steadfast love will meet me; God will let me look in triumph on my enemies. Psalm 59:10

But I will sing of your strength; I will sing aloud of your steadfast love in the morning. For you have been to me a fortress and a refuge in the day of my distress. O my Strength, I will sing praises to you, for you, O God, are my fortress, the God who shows me steadfast love. Psalm 59:16-17

Psalm 59 is a powerful Scripture for those experiencing attack from others. In it, David expresses alarm at the relentless attack of his enemies, along with profound faith in the steadfast love of God toward him. This is so instructive for us. We can become overwhelmed with sin and fail to see the God who is ever above it and unstained by it. Can there be anything better than the promise that “God in his steadfast love will meet me”? The heights of heaven touching the depths of earth. What else can we do but praise him!!
