Ps 13 3 Look on me and answer, O LORD my God.
Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death;
3my enemy will say, "I have overcome him,"
and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
5But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation.
6I will sing to the LORD ,
for he has been good to me."
The Psalmist is pouring out the problems he is in and describing the pain he is going through. There are some problems that we can keep to ourselves but there are other things we worry about that could lead to being abused in the world. All of our problems start when we wrestle with our thought and then we begin to worry that they will happen to us. We make all of our worse decisions when we say my enemy wIll overcome me. We begin to do things to try to fix the problem. We must learn to take our problems to God for wisdom. When the Psalmist faces a threat , he is tempted to abandon pronouncing the law, covenants, curses, statutes, promises and decrees. So he uses the gift of describing the problem to God and then expresses worry that problem would result in his death.
If the Psalmist abandoned the pronouncements and begin to do things to correct the problem then he might do a temporary correction. But if he put all of his confidence in pronouncing the axioms then he would receive illumination from God..Its hard for us to act with caution.Because the wheels of heaven turn very slow. When the Psalmist pronounces the axioms God directs him as he is led to a solution .In other words Gods direction is still small voice because He always works in the really small things. Where you walk, what you look at, the information you believe and understanding that problem was solved by His guidance. You see when God illuminates us , He is giving us wisdom for our best interest. He does not give the same guidance to others. 5But I trust in your unfailing love;
my heart rejoices in your salvation. God gives us wisdom in speaking the axioms in order to deliver us for His glory.
