Trust God for Deliverance
Backgrounder on Psalms 13-18:
In sharp contrast to the fate
of the
fool who denies God’s existence(14)
many blessings
accrue to those
who serve God wholeheartedly:
joy (Ps13), fellowship with God (15)
satisfaction (16), preservation (17)
& confidence in facing future (Ps18)
Psalm 18 was written by David
on the day that the Lord delivered
him from the hand of his enemies.
Lord, we place our Trust In You:
I will love You O Lord my strength.
The Lord is my rock and my
fortress and my Deliverer;
My God
my strength In Who I Will Trust.
My shield and the strength of
my salvation, my stronghold.
I will call upon the Lord, who is
worthy to be praised; for He saves
me from my enemies (Ps 18:1-3)
In my distress I called upon the
Lord, and cried out to my God;
He heard my voice (Ps 18:6).
You armed me with strength for
 battle; You made my adversaries
 bow at my feet (Psalm 18:39).
Blessed be my Rock! Let the God
of my salvation be exalted (v46).
Lord, be my rock and source
of security when I am beset by
difficulties in an uncertain world.
In You I find protection; and You are my stronghold &
I need nothing else.
Be my strength when I am weak.
 Be my shield of protection from
those who seek
to harm me.
Be the strength of my salvation
when I call upon You;
and I will ever praise You
for You are worthy. Amen.
Lord, reassuring that You are a God
that hears and answers prayers.
Thank You that You act on behalf
of those who seek You for help.
Be my strength when I am weak &
make me steady when I am unsure.
 And I bless You and praise You
 at all times for You are faithful and
 a very present help in time of need.
In Jesus’ precious name, Amen.
Lord, I am grateful that You have
armed me with the strength I need
for the battle ahead. Help me to
withstand and prevail my enemies.
Teach me to persevere in prayer
and not let down Nor give up.
Enable me to pray through each
 situation until I see breakthrough.
Thank You that You are always
 with me and working things out
 in my favour. In Jesus name, Amen.
