Looking over Psalm 63 we find that
Verse 1 articulates our desire for God
our thirst for God
and our yearning for God
Verse 2-8 speaks of things which are the goal of Christian prayer;-
Communion with God , which includes;
encounter with God,
experience of the presence of God,
communication of concerns,
expression of love and appreciation of love,
expression of hope,
revelation of truth,
self revelation of the nature of God.
Verse 2-8 demonstrates the considerable experience which the psalmist had
of ongoing personal relationship in prayer, including;-
divine counseling
divine enabling
divine upholding
divine inspiration of prophetic prayer
divine inspiration of love and forgiveness
divine inspiration of several ministries of prayer.
Psalm 36:7 ESV How precious is your steadfast love, O God !
The children of mankind take refuge in the shadow of your wings.
Psalm 63 is a hymn for Israel which looks beyond Israel to the rest of mankind.
