The reassurance to believers that what God has done for David will be done for us, His name and word are worthy, and are to be trusted. The picture of salvation and judgment. All ar…

7 Aug 2026, 11:22 UTC21 views1 reactionsread 7 August 2026 Psalm 18 is one of the first long-form songs of David, and it reflects his own experience with the Lord, his trust in God, and deliverance from his enemies, while weaving together prophetic views of Jesus, the doctrines of salvation, the end times wrath and Kingdom of God.
Ultimately, the Psalm gives us understanding of Who the Lord is and why He is worthy of our trust, today.
The Lord is our strength. Our rock. Ou…

43 Thou hast delivered me from the strivings of the people; and thou hast made me the head of the heathen: a people whom I have not known shall serve me.
44 As soon as they hear of me, they shall obey me: the strangers shall submit themselves unto me.

I will love thee, O LORD, my strength.
2 The LORD is my rock, and my fortress, and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my buckler, and the horn of my salvation, and my high tower.
3 I will call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised: so shall I be saved from mine enemies.
4 The sorrows of death compassed me, and the floods of ungodly men made me afraid.
5 The sorrows of hell com…
5 Aug 2026, 11:08 UTC40 viewsread 7 August 2026 Continuing in Psalms 17, we see that David's importunity comes from his faith in God to hear those who call upon Him. That we may go boldly before the throne of grace, because He has shown us that He listens to our cries. The initial call for salvation in the Lord's name gives us the hope that He listens to us for far less important matters, such as our suffering in this life.
The Lord's lovingkindness is already ap…
5 Aug 2026, 10:47 UTC30 views2 reactionsread 7 August 2026 The psalmist calls for the Lord's judgment, that His sentence be given against the wicked. But it is foolish to cry out for God's perfect justice to be administered, while you yourself are guilty.
It is like a thief going to the police because his partners robbed him of his share of their stolen things. Of a drug dealer complaining about being ripped off in a deal gone wrong.
And so, David wisely shows us the patte…

5 Aug 2026, 10:11 UTC26 views2 reactionsread 7 August 2026 Psalm 17 again shows us the model of importunity in prayer.
Importunity is a noun that means asking for something over and over again in a strong, pushy, or annoying way. It is the act of persistent begging or making urgent demands that wear people down. David utilizes this in Psalms to great effect. Pursuing an answer from the throne of God, with repeated supplication.
It may seem contrary to the fear of the Lord …

Hear the right, O LORD, attend unto my cry, give ear unto my prayer, that goeth not out of feigned lips.
2 Let my sentence come forth from thy presence; let thine eyes behold the things that are equal.
3 Thou hast proved mine heart; thou hast visited me in the night; thou hast tried me, and shalt find nothing; I am purposed that my mouth shall not transgress.
4 Concerning the works of men, by the word of…

The Psalm is quoted in the preaching of Peter before the crowds at Pentecost.

They make drink offerings of blood, and speak other names in their prayers.
The most prominent example of this today is Roman Catholicism. They make drink offerings, claiming it to be the blood of Christ, profaning His name, and bow to and serve idols representing their o…

The preservation of the saints is the hope of all who place their trust in God. Our very being cries out to Him for salvation, recognizing He is Lord.
Note here that this isn't "Lordship salvation," a false gospel that says you must "make Jesus the Lord of your life" to …
