(Failure is) not the falling down, but the staying down. -Pickford

Psalm 40:12, For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me.

The Psalmist David cries out in what seems to be his failure to escape the enemy. He cries out admitting his sin. He cries out of his weakness to the only One that can help. He cries out to the Lord! Why; because the Lord has delivered Him time and time again! And He will do it this time as well.

Friend, whatever you are going through, the Lord can get you through it. Turn to Him. Cry out to Him. Don’t give up, give in, or quit. PRESS ON! Read what David said just a few verses later: Psalm 40:17, But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.
