Psalms 109 - Turning Curse Into Blessing

1 For the choir director; a psalm by David.
O God, whom I praise, do not turn a deaf ear to me.

2 Wicked and deceitful people have opened their mouths against me.
They speak against me with lying tongues.

3 They surround me with hateful words.
They fight against me for no reason.

4 In return for my love, they accuse me,
but I pray for them.

5 They reward me with evil instead of good
and with hatred instead of love.
Psalms 109:1-5 (GW)


28 They may curse, but you will bless.
Let those who attack me be ashamed,
but let me rejoice.

29 Let those who accuse me wear disgrace as though it were clothing.
Let them be wrapped in their shame as though it were a robe.
Psalms 109:28-29 (GW)

Reflection of B:

Very often I do feel like King David felt above. Sometimes I may feel unjustly treated by people around me, be it at work or outside work. Yet God always reminds me to forgive and pray for these people. I also believe that God will turn all curses into blessings if I continue to stay faithful to Him and learn from all my experiences. Praise God!


Dear Lord,
You have always protected me from all curses and blessed me instead. Thank You for being my sheath. I love You Lord.
Amen.
