Trust in God and Fear No One (Psalm 56, Part 2)

A Petition for Judgment (verses 5-11)

http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Psalm%2056:5-11&version=NIV

May we petition God for judgment; and then put on the whole armor of God to withstand the attacks of the enemy. When our enemies conspire and lurk, watching our steps hoping to take our lives, we can cry to God. He hears, and turns our enemies back. We then return praise to God in gratitude. Our just God will fulfill His promises and banish our fears.

Just God, people around us twist our words, conspire, lurk, and watch our steps, hoping to cause us pain. Record our misery. Give us victory and show us that You are for us. You, Lord God, whose Word we praise—in You we put our trust and are not afraid. What can people do to us? Thank You that You care for us.
