Stop. Think. Praise. Pray.

Psalm 68 was written either by or for King David at the time when the ark of the covenant was being brought back to Jerusalem after being in the hands of the Philistines. The Psalm focuses on what we can do in times of attacks and challenges from the enemy? The people thanked God for taking them out from prison in Egypt, for giving them help when they needed it and for punishing their enemies. God will always do this for his people, any time, anywhere! Interestingly there are 3 SELAH’s in this Psalm. Bible students think that this is because people should stop, think, make music and pray before reading the other verses. Perhaps we should also stop to think about victories past and present and start to praise Him for our situations now and pray that He will ARISE over us and cause our enemies to flee.
