Psalm 108 - Trusting and Praising God

When we are steadfast in our trust of the Lord it is so much easier to praise Him. Indeed, in such situations praise emanates freely from our souls, from the heart of our being. This is because trusting God is the state we are meant to be in, it is what we were created foe, it is the way we were designed to function.
David declares the praises of God to the nations. And God's glory reaches over everything. It reaches throughout the universe, and so does His love.
David calls on God to help Israel, then announces that God has declared from His temple. Apparently from the end of this Psalm David was encountering a time when victory did not seem to be theirs, yet he remained full of faith and believed that victory would come in the end. One word from God is more powerful than all the circumstances in the world.
