Psalm 55

Psa 55:17 Evening and morning and at noon I will pray, and cry aloud, And He shall hear my voice.

This scripture is so beautiful. David has been talking about his enemies. He has been talking about these wicked, blood thirsty men. They hate David. They want to kill David. However the greatest offense David finds is that they hate God. David does the opposite. He runs to the Lord.

Gang, it encourages me so much that you are taking the time to read. Even more so, it encourages me that you are reading you Bibles. David was a man who communed with the Lord. As stated in our verse above, he prayed to the Lord "evening, and morning, and at noon." Now we go to school or work, which makes it hard to pull out your Bible in the middle of your day. Nevertheless, I would encourage you to stop everything and just pray. Slow down your life. Pray to the Lord and draw closer.

Daniel gives us this same example. No matter what was happening that day he as consistent to pray three times a day. It became such a habit that others were noticing. Communion with the Lord is what our lives are about. Take a break from the world and greet Him in the morning, at noon, and at night.
