There are difficult moments that come to the lives of human beings which cause us to cry out to the Lord. When we are persecuted by evil and do not cry out to Almighty God, we are without the Lord’s covering.
What happens when God’s covering is not in us? That because of this we could be attacked by evil. The psalmist David had moments when he prostrated himself before God, asking for deliverance and protection from his adversaries.
Lord, hear my prayer,
listen to my cry for mercy;
in your faithfulness and righteousness
come to my relief.Psalm 143:1
The processes teach us every day and help us understand that God is the only Almighty God, for God nothing is difficult.
The psalmist David was aware that he had to pray and ask God for direction to move forward, because there were many who wanted to make his life impossible.
Do not bring your servant into judgment,
for no one living is righteous before you.Psalm 143:2
Our justice is in the hands of the Lord. When we have problems and difficulties the Lord comes to our rescue to free us from all those who persecute us.
But before God no one can be justified because God knows the heart of man, He sees everything that man wants to do, sees everything that the human being is planning to attack the children of God.
The enemy pursues me,
he crushes me to the ground;
he makes me dwell in the darkness
like those long dead.Psalm 143:3
David prayed daily to the Lord for his enemies because every day that the attack by his adversaries increased. But God did not leave him alone, He was always attentive to His servant David to free him from his enemies.
This psalm reminds us that even the strongest and most prepared servants of God face seasons of profound anguish. David was a warrior, a king, and a man after God’s own heart, yet he also experienced moments of deep vulnerability. His strength was not based on military power or personal ability, but on an unbreakable dependence on God. In the same way, every believer must learn that true protection and lasting peace come only from the Lord.
When trials surround us, it is easy to believe that we are alone or that our prayers go unheard. However, this passage teaches us that God listens carefully to the cries of His children. He is attentive, compassionate, and willing to act in favor of those who sincerely seek Him. Crying out to God is not a sign of weakness, but of trust and spiritual maturity, for it acknowledges that only He has the power to sustain us in adversity.
David understood that his enemies were real and dangerous, but he also knew that the greatest danger was to face life without the presence of God. Many times we try to solve our struggles with our own strength, only to discover that human effort is insufficient. The covering of God is not optional; it is essential for spiritual survival. Without His guidance, we become vulnerable to attacks that seek to discourage, confuse, or destroy our faith.
The psalm also emphasizes an important truth: before God, no one is righteous. This humbles us and reminds us that prayer is not a negotiation based on our merits but an act of dependence on His mercy. When David asked God not to judge him, he recognized that even the most faithful believers fall short of divine perfection. Yet, despite our imperfections, God continues to offer His protection and love.
Every trial becomes a classroom where God teaches us to trust Him more. Difficult moments refine our hearts, strengthen our character, and draw us closer to the One who can do all things. Through these experiences, we learn that God is not distant but ever-present, working in silence, guiding our steps, and defending us from unseen dangers.
Just as God delivered David time and time again, He also sustains us in our battles. Even when the enemy seeks to crush us or lead us into darkness, the Lord becomes our light, our shield, and our refuge. Faith is strengthened when we remember how many times God has rescued us before and how faithfully He continues to act on our behalf.
Therefore, let us cry out to the Lord with confidence, knowing that He hears every prayer. Let us seek His covering daily, for only in His presence do we find true safety. And like David, may we learn to depend on God not just in moments of crisis, but in every step of life, trusting His mercy and celebrating His faithfulness.

APPEAL FOR DELIVERANCE AND DIRECTION
Do not bring your servant into judgment, for no one living is righteous before you.
Psalm 143:2
We hear about those bad things which happen around us, people who have been stolen, hurt, murdered on streets, run over by cars, trains that are derailed with people hurt or dead… terrible!
So I plead with the Lord everyday for protection and deliverance from such things. I think we are not aware or remember that the Bible tells us:
“For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places” Ephesians 6:12
My mother said to me: “Devil is on the loose” then she didn’t know the Bible says this and it is true. He and his servants are loosen…. So, we ought to be conscious of this and appeal to our Lord for deliverance and protection.
Another thing that God’s word teaches us is that we must be merciful and patient with each other: the verse written above makes reference to this. First of all we ought to be patient with our carnal family, perhaps among those who are not believers.
We must not think about bringing them to judgment if something wrong has happened, no. It would be better to suffer insults or economical losses than to bring our carnal family to justice Court.
If they are brothers who have some problems among them, the apostle Paul says we should judge the matter in the Church under the supervision of a wise person there, not bring it to Court.
A different thing is a lawsuit with unbelievers. It is possible for us to be forced to go to Court.
In all cases, we must be merciful, thinking that nobody is perfect, that we are not righteous people by ourselves.
We need the Lord God to direct everything for his name’s praise, in order to be holy children of our Father who is in Heaven, three times holy.
May we wish that the Lord God receives all the glory by our good works, he has before ordained that we should walk in them. Amen.
Amen.
