“Far from helping me”... How many of us have felt this way? As though God is distant, inattentive, or uninterested in us. We can relate to David in this way.

Jesus thus far has been called King, Son of David, but when asked by the people, they say He is just a prophet. Here we start to see the true heart of what is happening in this scene. They don’t get the true reason He had come!

We trust in the Lord because of His love and loyalty for us through his salvation. Through his salvation and love, “I will not be shaken!” Stability is always found in understanding the name of the Lord, His nature, His reputation, and character just as David did.
