Psalm Three
You heard me when we called, O God of my righteousness. You have enlarged our souls and enlightened our understanding. You made the fruit delicious to us and turned all sin into an abhorrence.
You turned our distress into a testimony, and our pain into a type, that they might look forward on the Son of God; that they might have a brightness of hope, and enter into the rest of the Lord.
O you sons of men, why will you not believe when I say, “O God, you have turned away your judgments because of your Son”? How can you read the scriptures and disbelieve on the Son of God? How can you not understand Her mercies which She has bestowed upon you because of Her Son? Why will you not accept her bounteous gifts?
The Lord will hear when we call unto Him for the sake of our people. His promises are immutable and will be fulfilled. Yet, O you Gentiles, we will walk with you, and we will bless you.
Let us offer up an open heart and a receiving spirit, and put our trust in the Lord.
He has poured gladness in our hearts with His Spirit. We know and bear record that He has visited with the manifestations of His Spirit, for it persuades men to do good. We have confidence when we hear Her say, "I love you."
