Psalm 57, Chiastic structure
Additional studies: Psalms Book Two: 42-72 Index
Because He is gracious to me, my heart can be steadfast. Predators may have laid snares for me with their sharp tongues, but they will fall into the snare they have laid. Therefore God is exalted above the heavens, His glory above all the earth.
1 Timothy 2:1-8, Supplications for kings
Additional studies: 1&2 Timothy Index
Paul instructs the church to let the giving of thanks be made for all men, especially for kings and those in authority. We have not done this. We can thank God that He is on His throne directing the affairs of men and nations, and turning the king’s heart like water in His hand (Pro 21:1). He is smarter than we are and all things serve their purpose. Let us thank Him for it.
