Pray the word with David Platt is a resource from radical dot net.

Psalm chapter 55 verse 22

cast your burden on the Lord and he will sustain you he will never permit the righteous to be moved.

Oh, what a good word from God for each of us today.

Cast your burden on the Lord,

and he will sustain you.

Just to hear God saying that today to you cast your burden. Any

weights you are carrying right now. Just think about those weights, those burdens on your heart and your life, your family, work, church, and the world, just think of any burden you're carrying and God is saying

right now in his word to you cast it on me and I will sustain you I will not permit

the righteous to be moved. I will uphold you. This is similar language to

earlier in Psalm 54. God is the upholder of my life. And what I love is the context, even here in

Psalm 55, David is in agony of soul, like he is hurting and at one point earlier he said fear and

trembling come over me I say that I had wings like a dove I would fly away and be at rest. Yes I would wander far away I would

lodge in the wilderness I would hurry to find a shelter from the raging wind and tempest.

Don't we all know what that feels like?

Some of you know what that feels like right now.

You just wish you could get out from underneath what you're walking through. Just wish that you

could get away from it all in a sense. That's what David is saying in Psalm 55 and he gets down to verse 22 and he's speaking to himself just saying

here's what I need to do and to cast my burden on the Lord and know that he will sustain me

so I don't have to run from this I just need to lay this before God and trust him with it and trust my life in his hands that he

will enable me, help me to stand in the middle of it all.

That's the last phrase, sentence in this whole song,
