Speak to My Soul

Psalms 35:3 KJV
Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation.

The Psalmist asks God to speak to his soul. What a great need that is. We have people to will speak to us about God. We have books that will tell us who is God. We have heard sermons and watched video recordings of others giving us their ideas of God. What we need though is to hear God speak to us directly.

We need God to speak to our soul and assure us of salvation.It may be quite damaging if a man, who can never know the spiritual condition of another man's soul, assures him he is saved. What if he is not? But when God speaks to the soul and gives that assurance, the soul is sure.

We need God to speak to our soul and assure us of deliverance.
There are a hundred and one dangers in our world today. None can take away our salvation but
They can rob us of peace
They can steal away our spiritual joy
They can shake our foundation so that we fear to serve the Lord as we ought

Friends might attempt to comfort us
Companions man try to reassure us
Peers may come alongside to pick us up

But what we really need is for God to speak to our soul with the strengthening message that He is a very present help in time of trouble.
