In Psalm 27:1-6, David declares with bold confidence that even when the wicked attack or an army encamps against him, his heart does not fear because he trusts in God’s protection and past deliverances. David’s singular desire is to dwell in the house of the Lord all his days, where in times of trouble, the Lord hides David in the secret place of His tabernacle, and sets him high upon a rock, above his enemies. David responds with worship—offering sacrifices of joy and singing praises to the Lord—modeling the comfort, security, and confident faith available to believers who take refuge in God.
