Meditation Upon the PSALMS Series: Psalm 63

"Psalm 63:
The location of the writing of the psalm is described generally as “in

the wilderness of Judah”
In deepest words of devotion, this psalm expresses David’s intense love for his ORD.
The psalm was written while David was in the Judean wilderness, either during his flight from Saul or more likely his flight from Absalom .

David writes from the perspective of these tenses:
I. Present – Seeking God’s Presence (63:1-5).
II. Past – Remembering God’s Power (63:6-8).
III. Future – Anticipating God’s Judgment (63:9-11).

Psalm 63:1 O God, Thou [art] my God; early will I seek Thee:

my soul thirsteth for Thee, my flesh longeth for Thee in a dry and thirsty land, where no water is;
The water that David is speaking of, is the Spirit of God.
John 4:14 But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

Psalm 63:2 

To see 

*Thy power 

*and Thy glory, 

*so [as] I have seen Thee in the sanctuary.

Psalm 63:3 Because Thy lovingkindness [is] better than life, my lips shall praise Thee."
