Psalm 143 – Mold me Lord

Psalm 143, written by David, is again another of the Psalms that he pleaded with God for intervention against his enemies. David shows us again and again that the Lord was his absolute trust. His confidence rested in Him alone. No matter how severe his trails or how tough his circumstance might be, the first thing he wold do was to run to the Lord. Here in this Psalm we see a similar response.

We are given no hint as to the situation David was facing at this time. All we know from the content of this Psalm is that he made a plea to the Lord and poured out his lament to Him. He knew if anyone could make right his matter, it must be the Lord. So he came to Him and poured out his lament.

Notice how much he desired to be right with the Lord. He asked the Lord to deal with him. He wanted so much for the Lord to bring the best out of him. From verses 6-12 we see so many entreaties. All in all he just wanted to be sure he was right with God. For he knew that above all things in his life, God must be the focal point. Like David let us make God our focal point and plea with Him to bring the very best into our life, to make us the person that will reflect His glory.
