(i) His goodness & everlasting love v1-4
(ii) Rescuing him v5-14
- Setting him in a large place v5b
- Being there for him v6-9
- Defeating his enemies v10-12
- Even when he fell v13-14
(iii) God’s victory for the righteous v15-23

Celebrate the goodness of God today. Let Him lift up your spirits so that even though you may be going through examinations or have stressful deadlines, you can still celebrate the fact that God will help you!
