Psalms 31:14

14 Desperate, I throw myself on you: you are my God!

Psalms 31:14 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 31:14

But I trusted in thee, O Lord
His faith revived again under all the discouraging views he had of things, and was exercised upon the Lord; he committed himself to him, believing he was able to help him in his time of trouble, and deliver him;

I said, thou [art] my God;
he claimed his covenant interest in him, and used it as an argument with him to have regard unto him, and as a support to his faith in his present distress; (See Gill on Psalms 7:1).

Psalms 31:14 In-Context

12 They want to blot me from memory, forget me like a corpse in a grave, discard me like a broken dish in the trash.

13 The street-talk gossip has me "criminally insane"! Behind locked doors they plot how to ruin me for good.

14 Desperate, I throw myself on you: you are my God!

15 Hour by hour I place my days in your hand, safe from the hands out to get me.

16 Warm me, your servant, with a smile; save me because you love me.
