Vindicate me, O Lord,

for I have led a blameless life;

I have trusted in the Lord

without wavering.



Vindicate Me (verse 1)

· The Hebrew word for “vindicate” means to “give me justice”.

· David was an upright and righteous man. He confessed this in verse one as well (“for I have led and blameless life; I have trusted in the Lord without wavering.”). He KNEW his heart!

· When we ask God to protect us, provide, and prosper us, this is a NEEDED part of it: to be found in HIS will!
