David's Song. II Samuel 22

 

II Samuel 22 – David’s Song

 

This is a song that David wrote at the end of his life. It speaks of God’s loving care for David in the past and it gives him confidence in the future.

Christ is the rock of our salvation- He is the foundation. He will deliver us in the time of temptation. He is the rock of my faith. He is the object of my faith. He protects us from the enemy. He is the One in whom we can rest for our salvation.

How monotonous life is when God is left out of it. David recognized God in all the experiences of his life, and his poetic expression of gratitude is a masterpiece of literature.

David was a rough and rugged man. But God is gentle. David’s association with God had quieted him. It had made David a gracious man. It is only when we come into a right relationship with God that we are enabled to really live.

David did not take credit for any of his victories; he gave the glory to God. Nor was he ashamed to admit that he cried out to God for deliverance and strength.

Your life today may seem hard, but keep trusting and obeying, one of these days, God will give you your own victory song, and you will experience greatness from the gentle hand of God.
