Song Of Deliverance 6

Songs From the hiding Place­­—Psalm 32:7

You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah

Here are the Hebrew meanings of these important words:

Surround:  câbab - sawbab  (Strongs 5437) a prime root word meaning to revolve or surround, to encircle, border, to compass about on every side.

Song:  rôn  - rone  (Strongs 7438 from 7442) a ringing cry, to triumph, sing or shout for joy. The root of the word means, to overcome. It is a strident, almost militant song.

deliverance: pallet - pal-late' (Strongs 6405 from 6403) escape, deliverance. This word is usually descriptive of God's deliverance.

Even in the direst of circumstances, when we are surrounded completely by our enemies, the Lord can sing over us His surrounding song of deliverance. This song can be heard in our hearts as we commune with the Lord and read the word. Also as singers, we must become ministers of such a song in the midst of the congregation.

It is interesting to me that the Lord makes a hiding place for us in times of trouble. He is such a devoted and loving Father. Not only do we hide in Him, but He sings His song over us and delivers us from our enemy. Carefully read each of these verses:

Ps 27:5 For in the time of trouble He shall hide (6845) me in His pavilion; In the secret place of His tabernacle He shall hide me; He shall set me high upon a rock.

Ps 143:9 Rescue me from my enemies, O LORD, for I hide (3680) myself in you. (NIV)

This hiding place keeps us from the plots and tongues of our enemies. Here God restores our reputation. It is the most recorded hiding place in the Word. We must believe what God says about us, not what others say:

Ps 31:20 You shall hide them in the secret (5641) place of Your presence from the plots of man; You shall keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.

Ps. 64:2-3  Hide (5641) me from the secret plots (counsel and conspiracy) of the wicked, From the rebellion (scheming) of the workers of iniquity, Who sharpen their tongue like a sword, And bend [their bows to shoot] their arrows—bitter words, (aimed bitter speech as their deadly arrow). AMP.

Job 5:21 You shall be hidden (2244) from the scourge of the tongue, and you shall not be afraid of destruction when it comes.

Ps. 83:3 They have taken crafty counsel against Your people, And consulted together against Your sheltered (hidden 6845) ones.

Ps. 119:114 You [are] my hiding (5643) place and my shield; I hope in Your word.

Two things to hear in this hiding place – instead of listening to the taunts of your enemies – listen for:

     His song

     His Word

Once you have heard the song that comes from His hiding place you will be able to sing it into the hearts of those who live in shame and without hope. It is so important for God’s singers and musicians to carry His sound and song on their lives.
