When we come out the other side, guess Who is there?
2 Samuel 22:1-6 David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said:“The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,my shield and the horn of my salvation.He is my stronghold, my refuge and my savior—from violent people you save me. “I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise,and have been saved from my enemies. The waves of death swirled about me;the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me. The cords of the grave coiled around me;the snares of death confronted me.
After Absalom's coup, there were a number of others who gave David grief, but The Lord delivered him from them all. At the end of the day, David gave a song of praise to The Lord. Introduced in these verses, this psalm recognizes how he was so victorious - it is all about Who God is. God was there all along, giving David success, even when it seemed like the world was against him. The same is true for us. He is there; let us not forget Him.
