Psalms 5: Warrior King and/or Loving Father?
By looking at the big picture Scripture presents, we can see one clear image of God our Father. He is both The Great King and loving Father.

Our God tolerates no rivals. As Great King He demands nothing take his place of supreme importance in our lives.
If God is all loving, why do we have to wait in times of trial and suffering? Why does He ignore our cry, “How long will you forget me?”
Knowing God changes our lives, but how we live reveals how we perceive God; it shows if we really believe he is the Great King, the Only God
If we say yes to Christ we open the door to the Holy Spirit. He moves within us enabling our transformation in Christ: the armour of God.
Our induction into God’s family, is like “basic training”. We are prepared for battle and better equipped for the war.
Why is war still raging? Why is Satan still around? Why are we involved? And what’s Spiritual Warfare got to do with us?
The fire will dim, it’s a given, we’re human. But God is ready and waiting to help bring it to life again, reigniting and stoking the fire.
God brings the heat to the equation, but are we providing enough fuel to keep the fire blazing, or are we starving it of what it needs?
God presence is the heat that the fire requites, but we can smother the fire by gathering too many tasks rather that doing what is required.
