Ask the Lord to reveal His truth concerning Psalms 51-53 to you. Read Psalms 51-53. Let’s journey!

Commentary: Two of today’s psalms are written by David. Psalm 51 was written after David was rebuked for his sin with Bathsheba and her husband. Sin separates us from God. Some say there is no God, which allows them, outwardly at least, to live carefree, thoughtless, sin-fueled lives. Lives offensive to God. No one lives a sinless life, however, denying God’s existence doesn’t excuse us from the consequences of sin. You must believe in God to effectively deal with sin. Psalm 52 was written when Saul was pursuing David. David had been betrayed by a friend. Psalm 53 is practically identical to Psalm 14. It speaks of God’s wisdom and warns against those who deny Him.
