Psalms 3–4, 12–13, 28, 55

Common Theme

God is a refuge for the righteous in times of betrayal, fear, and injustice. Each psalm expresses honest distress but ultimately turns to confidence in God’s justice, nearness, and deliverance.

Questions

• What does it mean to truly cast our burdens on the Lord, especially when the betrayal comes from someone close?
• How can we remain confident in God’s justice when the wicked seem to prevail?

God Shot

God is the unwavering refuge for the afflicted—He listens, defends, and acts. He hates lies, loves righteousness, and never abandons those who trust in Him. Even when His people cry out in despair, He sustains them, bears their burdens, and secures justice in His perfect timing.
