Psalm 69:1-3
Here it seems that David is on the verge of giving up completely
Psalm 69:17
This is when he takes his eyes of his circumstances and looks to the greatness of God.
Let not those who wait for You, O Lord GOD of hosts, be ashamed because of me; Let not those who seek You be confounded because of me, O God of Israel. (Psalm 69:6)
Let not those who come to the services be ashamed because of my failure to take hold of you.
Let not the floodwater overflow me,
Nor let the deep swallow me up;
And let not the pit shut its mouth on me. (Psalm 69:15)
In the context of the above scripture, this passage alludes to death or hell, and it mentions pit or the entrance to hell. Perry Stone a bible scholar mentions that that just as the New Jerusalem in heaven has twelve entrances into the Holy City, there are also entrances scattered around the world that lead to the subterranean world of Sheol.
They also gave me gall for my food,
And for my thirst they gave me vinegar to drink. (Psalm 69:21)
This is a messianic reference to Lord Jesus
Let their eyes be darkened, so that they do not see; (Psalm 69:23)
The opposite of this is...let their eyes be enlightened so that they might see
Importance of a song
I will praise the name of God with a song,
This also shall please the Lord better than an ox or bull, Which has horns and hooves. (Psalm 69:30-31)
Just imagine you singing a song will please the Lord better than a sacrifice of an ox or a bull. Let’s sing to the Lord. How many songs do you sing during your time of prayer.
