Psalm 26 is a prayer for vindication against an unjust charge made against [[David]]; while Psalm 27 is a prayer for spiritual orientation toward [[God]] (verses 1-3); toward life (verses 4-6); and toward self (verses 7-14).
Psalm 28 is a prayer of deliverance, followed by thanksgiving for the answer. [[David]] was hopeless except for [[God]]. He depended on [[God]] and rejoiced in Him as the solid Rock of his salvation.
Psalm 29 is a Psalm of praise, ending with a tremendous promise to all the children of [[God]]. The [[Lord]] will give strength to His people; He will bless His people with [[peace]]. Today, the strength of [[God]]'s redeemed comes through the person of the Holy [[Spirit]]. He is our refuge; He is our hope; He is our sustenance in time of trouble; He is our deliverer; He is our comforter; He is our keeper. The [[peace]] that passeth all understanding comes only from [[God]]. In order for a person to find that [[peace]], he must receive [[Jesus Christ]] as his own personal [[Saviour]].
Psalm 30 is a Psalm and song at the dedication of the house of [[David]], after he had conquered [[Jerusalem]] and made it his capital. [[David]] had often been near [[death]], but [[God]] brought him through. In this Psalm, [[David]] says he will sing praise to [[God]] forever.
[[David]] was a man after [[God]]'s own heart. He never forgot where his strength and accomplishments came from. He was always faithful in giving thanks to [[God]]. Thanksgiving from [[Christians]] is pleasing to the Father. Too many times our prayers are filled only with requests, and we fail to thank [[God]] for all He has done for us. Philippians 4:6 says, "Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto [[God]].".
Psalm 31 is a song of trust. [[David]] was in constant danger, trouble, grief, or humiliation, and he always implicitly trusted in [[God]]. [[Jesus]] quoted verse 5 of this Psalm as He died on the cross (see Luke 23:46).
