Psalms 27:3

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 27:3. Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear; -

It is then that we mostly do fear, before the fight begins when the enemy lies encamped against us. We do not know how strong is the foe, nor what mischief he is going to do to us, and the uncertainty often brings a dread with it; yet, says the psalmist, "though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear."

Psalms 27:3. Though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident.

Let my enemies begin the battle, let the noise and the smoke and the dust of the fight surround me, I will still be -

"Calm ‘mid the bewild’ring cry,

Confident of victory."
