“You (God) prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies.” Psalm 23:5

David, the author of this Psalm 23, once stood before Goliath with a slingshot and five stones. He did not need five stones to take out Goliath, the other four stones were for Goliath’s brothers (go back and read the story in 1 Samuel 17). One stone each was all it would take for David fully understood more than anyone what it meant for God to prepare a table before him in the presence of his enemies.

God Is All You Need.

David further expounds this concept a few chapters later in Psalm 46, where he says, “God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear.” Indeed, God has prepared a table before you in the very presence of your enemies. And who are your enemies? Don’t always assume its people. How about fear? Worry? Guilt? We wrestle with a lot of enemies in our minds every single day. Just remember, God sits with you at the table He has set before you. Trust Him.
