🌿 Your Lovingkindness Will Preserve Me – Psalm 40:11
“You, O Lord, will not withhold Your compassion from me; Your lovingkindness and Your truth will continually preserve me.” — Psalm 40:11
I do not know what the Psalmist was going through—or what he saw ahead of him—that made him utter these Spirit-filled words of faith. But he spoke with boldness and trust in the Lord. I believe he understood the source of his help.
“You, O LORD...”
He begins with: “You, O LORD...” — meaning no one else can, only the Lord Almighty alone.
So what can the Lord do?
First: He Will Not Withhold His Compassion
“You will not withhold Your compassion from me.” This is a statement of faith.
God will not withhold His compassion:
1. Compassion to blot out his transgression (Psalm 51:2)
2. Compassion to wrap him tight from his own shame and darkness
Maybe you too—like myself—need the spotless, sanctifying compassion of the Lord to keep us nearer the cross. To pull us away from unrighteousness. To give us abundant life in Christ and hope beyond affliction. And to deliver us from poverty.
Yes—His compassion can and will.
Second: His Lovingkindness and Truth Will Preserve Me
“Your lovingkindness and Your truth will continually preserve me.”
The Lord is so good to the helpless—people who know their deepest need is the Lord. When trouble comes to those who are brokenhearted and crushed in spirit, He preserves them.
May that be true of everyone reading this—to you, my dear friend.
Trust in the Lord's lovingkindness, and He will protect you from your enemies. He will preserve you and keep you alive.
The Lord's Truth Will Keep You Alive
Whatever God has said, He will perform it.
1. He says He will make you the head and not the tail—that truth will preserve you.
2. He says He will enlarge your territory and bless you—He will do that.
3. He says He will restore your health and keep you alive—He will perform that Word.
Yes—rely on Him today and remain blessed in His loving hand.
🙏 Let Me Pray with You
