Psalm 55 is a three part song, sung three times daily, encapsulating three indispensable elements of prayer in crisis. Spurgeon in expounding the theme of Psalm 55 as a warrior's imprecation – or call for judgement – is quoted as follows: “There is justice in the universe, love itself demands it, pity to rebels against God, as such, is no virtue – we pray for them as creatures, we abhor them as enemies of God. We need in these days far more to guard against the disguised iniquity which sympathizes with evil, and counts punishment to be cruelty, than against the harshness of a former age.” Songs/prayers like Psalm 55 – as Spurgeon rightly observes – are relevant so long as Genesis 3:15 and the great antithesis is a reality in history. There will remain enmity between the righteous and the seed of the serpent until the consummation of history. Psalm 55 provides fitting worship for the covenant bound warrior navigating the spiritual warfare of the inter- advent. (The time between the resurrection and the second coming of Christ)
