The Lord Will

Psalm 57:10

“For thy mercy is great unto the heavens, and thy truth unto the clouds.”

KJV

Read in Psalm 57

Meaning

The cosmic scale contrasts with the confined danger of the psalm’s opening. God’s covenant faithfulness is portrayed as larger than the immediate threat without being reduced to a timetable for relief.

Read carefully

The verse uses cosmic poetry to praise God’s character; it does not specify the timing or form of deliverance in every circumstance.

Reflection

Use the psalm’s large-scale imagery to remember that a crisis is not the full measure of God’s character.
