Faith versus fear

Psa. 27:1-14

1. Why was the psalmist confident?

The LORD is our light and my salvation, stronghold of our life. For in the day of trouble he will keep us safe in his dwelling; he will hide us in the shelter of his tabernacle and set us high upon a rock.

The psalmist is confident as he will see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.

Psa. 43:1-5

2. What emotions did the psalmist experience?

For the psalmist is bothered with deceitful and wicked men, he felt oppressed and mourned.

He said "Why are you downcast, O my soul? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God."
