Psalm 57:7-8 My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises! Awake, my glory! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
David awakens the dawn with his admiration to God! He shows his faith in God as he says 'My heart is steadfast' and his soul bursts into praise. Then listen to verse eight: Awake, my glory! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn.
David calls out to his soul and his instruments to prepare for praise. Before a new day begins, he wants to “wake the dawn” with his song honoring God’s faithfulness. Instead of spending a sleepless night worrying about what he cannot change, he uses those wakeful hours to meditate on an expression suitable for the world. David’s example shows us how to turn times of stress into times of blessing by considering God’s faithfulness in comparison with our fleeting problems. Why worry when you can invest that time in praise? ~ LAB
Let's follow David's example and wake up singing praises to our Heavenly Father!
