Praise for God’s Deliverance

1 Then David aspoke to the Lord the words of this song, on the day when the Lord had bdelivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul.  
2 And he asaid:
b“The Lord is my rock and my cfortress and my deliverer; 
3 The God of my strength, ain whom I will trust;
My bshield and the chorn of my salvation,
My dstronghold and my erefuge;
My Savior, You save me from violence. 
4 I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised;
So shall I be saved from my enemies.
5 “When the waves of death surrounded me,
The floods of ungodliness1 made me afraid.

2 Samuel 22:1-51

David's psalm of thanksgiving.

- This chapter is a psalm of praise; we find it afterwards nearly as psalms 18 . They that trust God in the way of duty, shall find him a present help in their greatest dangers: David did so. Remarkable preservations should be particularly mentioned in our praises. We shall never be delivered from all enemies till we II Timothy Those who receive signal mercies from God, ought to give him the glory. In the day that God delivered David, he sang this song. While the mercy is fresh, and we are most affected with it, let the thank-offering be brought, to be kindled with the fire of that affection. All his joys and hopes close, as all our hopes should do, in the great Redeemer.
