Psalm 57: Lying among Lions

Psalm 57 (NKJV)Andrew and Edwin discover a recurring image in the Psalms: enemies with knife, spear, and sword infested mouths. Of course, the Psalmists speak metaphorically. Slander, gossip, plotting, threats hurt. David compares his enemies to the lions he faces in the wilderness. Though he goes to bed in danger, he wakes up to praise God. Our hosts compare this psalm to Daniel's very literal experience centuries later.Read the written devo that goes along with this episode by clicking here.    Let us know what you are learning or any questions you have.
