Psalm 40David’s prayer for rescue breaks out in worship because he has a long history of deliverance. He knows that the LORD’s deeds and thoughts toward his people are more than can be told. He begins by declaring that he had waited patiently for the LORD’s rescue. He ends by calling on the LORD to do it again, and do not delay. Our faith is not always a blind leap. We have reasons to expect the LORD to rescue us.
LORD, thank you for the history we have of your faithfulness to us.
