主讲：丘均发传道


一、呼求至高神怜悯（诗57:1-3）

1.投靠神翅膀荫下（V1-2）
躲在山洞中，随时可能被发现。虽然身处险境，他的心却投靠在神的翅膀荫下，等候灾害过去。他不倚靠自己的聪明或武力，而是承认软弱，仰望那位为他成全万事的天父。

今天，当我们被工作压力、家庭冲突或健康问题“追赶”时，不要硬撑，也不要逃避、自欺。真正的出路，是像大卫一样，投靠在神的荫下，等候祂的作为成全诸事。

2．神必施恩拯救我（V3）
大卫说，当敌人辱骂、要吞灭他时，神必从天施恩拯救，并以慈爱和信实保护他。这提醒我们：敌人再凶，神的话更可靠；先信靠祂的应许，祂必使咒骂变为祝福。

二、面对凶险仰望神（诗57:4-6）

1.身处狮子群中间（V4）
大卫描述自己像躺在狮子窝里，随时可能被撕碎；但他没有逃避，而是倚靠神，不被仇敌压倒。

今天，我们的“狮子”或许是难相处的人、苛刻的上司或外界批评。别退缩，向神说：“我虽在狮子群中，我的性命却在你手中。”最终，我们将看见神翻转局面。

2．信心高举神荣耀（V5-6）
大卫在洞中仍宣告神要被高举！他虽在低谷，却看见神的荣耀高过一切；敌人设下陷阱，反而自陷其中。

所以，在我们的“洞穴”中：失业、病痛或孤单，别只求脱困，而要祷告：“神啊，愿祢的荣耀高过这一切！”当我们信靠神，就必看见祂把陷坑变为祝福，也让人因我们的见证看见祂的荣美。

三、心志坚定称颂神（诗 57:7-11）

1．坚定选择要歌颂（V7）
大卫重复“我心坚定”，意思是他的心稳固不摇，在困境仍坚定选择歌颂神！这告诉我们：这份“心坚定”不是靠感觉，而是主动的选择！当我们用赞美取代抱怨，心就会稳如磐石。

2．唤醒灵魂见黎明（V8）
大卫知道，属灵的复兴是从“唤醒自己”开始。他先唤醒自己的灵，再迎接神的黎明。也就是说，黎明不只是天亮，更是心先被光照，使神的光照亮我们里面。

3．在万民中称颂神（V9-11）
大卫灵魂苏醒后，便向万民称颂神，因为他经历了神的慈爱与信实，知道万有都在祂掌权之下。

神的心意，是让我们在困境中见证祂。今天，把你的故事变成见证：在朋友圈、职场或家庭中，分享神如何在你的“洞穴”中拯救你，让祂的慈爱与荣耀借着你传扬出去。

总结：让神的荣耀高过全地！
神今天也呼召我们：在“洞穴”中投靠祂的翅膀，高举祂的荣耀，唱出信心的歌，使祂的荣耀高过全地！


  

Psalm 57: A Song of Faith in the Cave
GK611 Morning Devotion
02.04.2026
Speaker: Ps Daniel Kew


I. Crying Out for the Mercy of the Most High (Psalm 57:1–3)

1. Taking refuge under the shadow of God’s wings (V–2) 
Hiding in a cave, David could be discovered at any moment. Though he was in great danger, his heart took refuge under the shadow of God’s wings, waiting for the disaster to pass. He did not rely on his own wisdom or strength, but acknowledged his weakness and looked to the Heavenly Father who fulfills all things for him.

Today, when we are “pursued” by work pressure, family conflict or health problems, we should neither struggle in our own strength nor escape or deceive ourselves. The true way out is to follow David’s example—take refuge under God’s covering and wait for Him to accomplish all things.

2. God will surely send grace and save me (V3) 
David declared that when enemies reproached him and sought to devour him, God would send help from heaven to save him, surrounding him with steadfast love and faithfulness. This reminds us: no matter how fierce the enemy is, God’s word is more reliable. Trust His promises first, and He will turn curses into blessings.

II. Looking to God in the Face of Danger (Psalm 57:4–6)

1. Surrounded by lions (V4) 
David described himself as lying among lions, at any moment at risk of being torn apart. Yet he did not flee; instead, he relied on God and was not overwhelmed by his enemies.
Today, our “lions” may be difficult people, demanding bosses or harsh criticisms. Do not shrink back. Say to God, “Though I am among lions, my life is in Your hands.” In the end, we will see God turning the situation around.

2. Faith exalts God’s glory (V5–6) 
Even in the cave, David proclaimed that God would be exalted! Though he was in a low valley, he saw that God’s glory is above all. The traps set by his enemies ended up ensnaring themselves.
Therefore, in our own “caves”—whether unemployment, illness, or loneliness—do not only pray for escape, but pray: “O God, may Your glory be exalted above all!” When we trust in Him, we will see Him turn pits into blessings, and others will witness His beauty through our testimony.

III. A Steadfast Heart that Praises God (Psalm 57:7–11)

1. Choosing firmly to praise (V7) 
David repeated, “My heart is steadfast,” meaning his heart was firm and unshaken. 

Even in hardship, he chose to praise God. This teaches us that a “steadfast heart” does not depend on feelings—it is a deliberate choice. When we replace complaints with praise, our hearts become as steady as a rock.

2. Awakening the soul to greet the dawn (V8) 
David understood that spiritual revival begins with “awakening oneself.” He first stirred his own soul, then welcomed the dawn of God. In other words, dawn is not just the breaking of day—it is when our hearts are first illuminated, allowing God’s light to shine within us.

3. Praising God among the nations (V9–11) 
After his soul was awakened, David praised God among the peoples, because he had experienced God’s steadfast love and faithfulness and knew that all things are under His rule.

God’s desire is for us to testify of Him in the midst of difficulties. Today, turn your story into a testimony: in your social circles, workplace, or family, share how God has saved you in your “cave,” so that His love and glory may be proclaimed through you.

Conclusion: Let God’s Glory Be Exalted Over All the Earth! 

God is calling us today: in our “caves,” take refuge under His wings, exalt His glory, and sing songs of faith—so that His glory may be lifted high over all the earth!
