Psalms 3 vs 3 in Yoruba
O. Daf 3:3 YBCV: Ṣugbọn iwọ, Oluwa, li asà fun mi; ogo mi; ati olugbe ori mi soke.
Key: Psalms 3 vs 3 was written at the time David was humiliated and chased out of the palace by his own son, Absalom.
Nevertheless, David believed in God as his shield; his defender, his protector. He went further to reference God as his glory; the One through which his light shone. And finally he called God the “Lifter of my head”; the One who promoted him and made him King, the One who took him from the horrible pit and set his feet on the solid rock.
Action: What are you going through right now? Let your faith rise today! Trust in the Lord to deliver you like he delivered David and restored him back to his throne, because the Lord is your shield, your glory and the lifter of your head!
