To the Music Director again the Tune of this song should be set to
"Do Not Destroy"
Your tune should instruct the Church members to Build others , and not Destroy others.
Even to the hearers of this Psalm, and the ones who are meditating, your hearts should be tuned to theme of " Do Not Destroy"
Build, Do Not Destroy.
Destroying something or someone is pretty easy.
Destroying a building is very easy. But Building something takes time, energy, effort, hardship.
It is easy to destroy someone with your words, but to Build a person it takes time.
The Lord Jesus had to spend time 3 and half years to Build His Disciples.
The Lord has to spend time with Samaritan woman to bring out life in her.
The Pastor has to spend hours to build someone.
and how much time does it take destroy another?
As you listen to this Psalm, Set our hearts to Build Someone.
I will commit myself to Build someone.
V 4 My soul is among lions;
I lie among the sons of men
Who are set on fire,
Whose teeth are spears and arrows,
And their tongue a sharp sword.
Psalmists view of God is this. God who performs all things for me.
What is your View of God?
Do you only know God as someone who can provide to you in your needs?
DO you only know God as someone who can heal you in times of sickness?
Do you only know God as One who gives eternal life?
Do you only know God who gives your job promotion?
In which Box are you containing God?
When Solomon built the temple, and on the day of dedication, he said,
1 Kings 8:27
27 “But will God indeed dwell on the earth? Behold, heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You. How much less this temple which I have built!
heaven and the heaven of heavens cannot contain You.
You cannot Box God in your compartment.
Today I want to you to stretch your faith to know God out of your Box.
To experience God out of your box, does not happen automatically. But You must be a Seeker.
V8
Awake, my glory!
Awake, lute and harp!
I will awaken the dawn.
God is a rewarder of those who seek Him diligently.
Psalmist says I will awaken the dawn.
Psalmist stretched himself to wakeup the morning.
The Woman with the issue of the blood stretched her faith and saw the deliverance.
Zaccheaus stretched his faith and climbed onto a tree and saw the salvation.
The Problem Israel had throughout the wilderness was that they were containing Him in a box just to provide their needs. They never knew God out of that box and many perished because of that.
Psalmist says I cry to God who performs all things for me.
To truly enter the land of Canan means , Donot limit God to the Box. But Experience HIM.

David was among people who want to destroy him.
Tongue is compared to sharp sword, and teeth are spears and arrows.
Your tongue is a potential Sword and your teeth are Spears and Arrow. Destruction.
The Bible also says A good reports brings health to the bones.
Psalmist's response for all calamities around him is this.
V 2
I will cry out to God Most High,
To God who performs all things for me.
To God who performs all things for me.
