“Truth for Truckers” *June 22, 2014* Psalm 142 “Bring
my soul out of prison”
At a time when David was in dire straits,
he wrote this Psalm from a cave as he was under assault from King Saul. He
recognized that he was in a literal prison for his liberty was limited by
constantly being hunted down in his own land.His
prayer at the end of Psalm 142 is a deep longing for His Lord to set him free
from Saul’s persecution:
“Bring my soul out of prison, that I may
praise Thy name; the righteous shall compass me about; for Thou shall deal
bountifully with me.”(v.7)
Notice, David recognizes that
his praise to the Lord’s name will be made when he is given freedom from Saul.
Also, when David is released from his self-imposed captivity the righteous will
encircle him and he will receive abundant blessings from the Lord. So it is with
us, Drivers, when we walk at liberty in the fullness of the Holy Spirit, we too
will be blessed of the Lord for where the Spirit of the Lord is there is
liberty (II Corinthians 3:17)
