"A Prayer of Trust"

PSALMS 56 [To the chief Musician upon Jonathelemrechokim, Michtam of David, when the Philistines took him in Gath.] O, I sure hope you know by now where this title comes from; and isn't rather interesting that this Psalm is about Trust? And here is a word that is only found here, the word Jonath-elem-recho-kim, which equals, "the silent dove of far-off places", whatever that might mean? In the Strong's, it simply says, Meaning Uncertain, probably name of melody; but gathering that it was attributed to an event that took some real courage, I am thinking that it was a pretty heavy melody, maybe even some real hard rock, like say, "We Will Rock You" type of a melody? The word Michtam simply means "something written", which was in the heading of Psalms 16, and appears in the headings of these next five Psalms; and it might render a meaning that says, "a golden or most precious poem"; although there is some disagreement to that meaning. On the other hand, this title might give us a little clue, because it does not say, A Prayer for Trust, but "of Trust"; in other words, it renders a fact, not a desire, which means that trust is something that we must just do because God is Trustworthy, not based upon any ability that we might have, or not have, to trust Him. Here is a really good example, if you need one; it would be when Abraham was going to sacrifice his son, just because God asked him to do it (Genesis 22:1-19). There was no sense to be made of what God said for him to do, none whatsoever; even Isaac was bewildered, asking his father, "Behold the fire and the wood: but where is the lamb for a burnt offering?" Talk about trusting in God; Abraham's answer was the proof enough that he trusted in God to work everything out: "And Abraham said, My son, God will provide Himself a lamb for a burnt offering" (Genesis 22:8). Oddly enough, they say that the place where Abraham was going to sacrifice his son, is the same location where God did sacrifice His Son for our sins; put that together with the statement Abraham made in answering his son, and you have some pretty heavy duty prophecy regarding something that God would be doing in the very same place, 1900 years later... "And the angel of the LORD called unto him out of heaven, and said, Abraham, Abraham: and he said, Here am I. And he said, Lay not thine hand upon the lad, neither do thou any thing unto him: for now I know that thou fearest God, seeing thou hast not withheld thy son, thine only son from Me. And Abraham lifted up his eyes, and looked, and behold behind him a ram caught in a thicket by his horns: and Abraham went and took the ram, and offered him up for a burnt offering in the stead of his son. And Abraham called the name of that place Jehovah-jireh: as it is said to this day, In the mount of the LORD it shall be seen." (Genesis 22:11-14)
