PSALM 34

It is a continuation of Psalm 33. The context of this psalm is that David was drove out by Saul. We feel the threat of the enemy. The psalmist hadn't peace in his heart. But what was his attitude in the midst of this misfortune ? He might have the feeling of failure and loss, but he looks the situation and the future differently, and the praise implodes in his heart. First, David kept the fear of the Lord. There is an episode where David, in a cave, had the opportunity to kill his enemy Saul. But David had the fear of the Lord and he only cut the fringe of the clothing of Saul, as testimony. He never lost that fear, and he had the assurance in Whom he believed. God is the one who gets the side of the righteous. Who is right?
1) The one who keeps his tongue
2) Despite the prejudices of others, he continues to do good
3) The one who has the broken and repenting heart  before the holy God.
In conclusion:
 -The villain is reprehensible
 -The misfortune is probable
 -The rightous is always helpful
