“But God will shoot them with arrows; suddenly, they will be wounded. They will be made to stumble; their own tongues work against them. All who see them will shake their heads. Then everyone will fear and will tell about God’s work, for they will understand what he has done. The righteous one rejoices in the Lord and takes refuge in him; all those who are upright in heart will offer praise.”
Psalms 64:7-10 CSB
David was often attacked by people around him that wanted him to fail. This is less common for me in my experience…but it does happen spiritually where attacks come aimed at my heart and mind. The enemy will shoot darts of lies or plant thoughts of frustrations with Gods ways. These are the attacks that are real to me. That is where I can relate these Psalms of David.
Lord, protect my mind and heart from the schemes of the enemy. Help me to recognize the lies as soon as they come and remind me of the Truth of Your Word. Turn his plans against him and cause the intended pain to build me up and bring You glory. Protect my family from attacks and strengthen their ability to see the darts for the lies they are!
