04/22/2021 – Day 340 Psalm 140 – 142 // “In the eyes of a sinful world, ‘humility’ is bad self-esteem.” Bruce Garner

All three chapters have an unmistakable theme of prayer for deliverance from enemies and persecutors. As Garner’s quote suggest, I submit that David did not have a self esteem problem, but he humbled himself before His Lord. And that along with a a steadfast fear of the Lord, are two very strong factors that result in the Bible noting that David had a heart for God.

Psalm 141: 5 caught my attention for it asks God for righteous rebuking from brothers. John Gill’s commentary is as follows:
