Ps 20 4 May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed."
When we are saved, we are implanted with the word of God. Our old will is destroyed, and we receive Gods desires. God saves us by giving us grace to believe and to receive salvation.If our salvation depended upon our wills then God could not free us until we "come clean."Some people teach we cannot save being unless we acknowledge the whole truth about our condition. But we genuinely believe that God cannot accept our own repentance.It doesn't matter how bad we feel, how much we humbly confess, whether we get to a vulnerable point where we accept salvation. The sole hope we cherish is for God to perform a completed work in our hearts that does not depend upon our understanding.
If salvation depended upon our own repentance then we could never achieve the objective standards of the truth God requires for our old will to cross the line of acceptability.This work of destroying the will remains a silent work of God. This is why some people grow up in the church who ne'er demonstrated a time where they prayed a prayer. At some point the inward work of the Spirit changed their wills.This is what we are informed in the Psalms. There are people focused on a informed decision. If we are confident in the strength of our decision then we can be confident in our salvation.But this will not teach us comforting assurance. Correctly speaking if a person is struggling with whether they were sincere the Psalmist teaches we must rehearse how God redeems us.God bestows us grace to sincerely repent. He bestows us grace to graciously receive our new desires, resolves the question by our resting in His gracious gift of eternal salvation.

The sole hope we cherish is for God to efficiently perform a completed work in our hearts that does not depend upon our understanding. 

If salvation depended upon our own repentance then we could never achieve the objective standards of the truth God requires for our old will to cross the line of acceptability.This work of destroying the will remains a silent work of God. This is why some people grow up in the church who ne'er demonstrated a specific time where they prayed a prayer. At some point the inward work of the Spirit changed their obstinate wills.This is what we are informed in the Psalms. There are people focused on a informed decision. If we are confident in the strength of our personal decision then we can be confident in our salvation.But this will not teach us comforting assurance. Correctly speaking if a person is struggling with whether they were sincere the Psalmist teaches we must rehearse how God redeems us.God bestows us grace to sincerely repent. He bestows us grace to graciously receive our new desires, resolves the unanswered question by our resting in His gracious gift of eternal salvation.

 We must understand that a Christian is no longer divided in the will. The Psalmist teaches we are required to unite our desires as a community by speaking a blessing on all other Christian who cherish their desires fulfilled. This Psalm explains the rule in Christian relationships. When we declare or describe anything about another Christian that is not based upon the pronouncement of blessing to other brothers and sisters then we are sinning. We are authoritatively speaking of essential unity in fundamental doctrine. The law explains to us the official line that we cannot cross so this Psalm prevent us from paganism by being the rule we speak to one another in Christian fellowship. When we speak this Psalm on a daily basis, it directs us to restrain our tongues. 1 May the LORD answer you when you are in distress;

 In the Christian spirit that humbly prays for all the believers desires to be fulfilled leads to the cultural unity that wins all battles. The apostle carefully teaches that our Christian fellowship is like sacred marriage. In successful marriage the two reliable partners are a reflection of one another. The success of one person depends upon his belief that the other person should be regarded like he wants to be treated. God has ideally made essential oneness to be adequately expressed as one self. Consequently, when we adequately describe the other person, we properly speak as we are describing ourselves.We speak as if the love for ourselves and our own success is dependent upon what we affirm about the other partner. And this is the same reflection that all share in our doctrinal relationships within the established church. This Psalm is our fall back position when we witness the abuse of language spoken about other Christians. Therefore, we meditate on this Psalm to withdraw from these abuses.
