Psalm 55 (Short Message) Facing Betrayal and Finding Rest in the Sovereignty of God

In Psalm 55, David expresses his distress and turmoil, facing trouble from enemies who were once close companions. Despite his anguish, David turns to God, reminding himself of the Lord's greatness and sovereignty. He finds comfort in trusting God with his burdens and believes that the Lord will hear him and humble his enemies. The sermon also connects Psalm 55 to the betrayal of Judas against Jesus (Matthew 27:47-50), highlighting the theme of close companions turning against someone they once knew. The application encourages people to seek salvation through Jesus Christ. Also, we need to acknowledge God's greatness and cast our burdens upon Him for rest and peace.
