“Come and hear, all ye that fear God, and I will declare what He has done for my soul.” (v.16)
Most Bible commentators believe that this Psalm was written by Hezekiah, king of Judah, after the Lord delivered the inhabitants of Jerusalem from the attack of the Assyrian army. Although the city was surrounded by 185,000 Assyrians, not a single arrow would make its way into Jerusalem (Isaiah 37:33).
As with Hezekiah, when our hearts overflow with thanksgiving for what the Lord has done for us in rescuing us from destruction and from the attack of the enemy, we can’t help but declare His marvelous works, and praise His name.
The Truth: "My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. He will not allow your foot to slip; your Protector will not slumber. Behold, the Protector of Israel will not slumber or sleep.” (Psalm 121:2-4)
