Today’s Bible Verse: "He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me." — Psalm 18:19 Psalm 18:19 reminds us that God’s rescue is not only about deliverance from danger—it’s about being brought into freedom and security, rooted in His love. David celebrates that God doesn’t just save His people out of obligation; He saves because He delights in them. “Want to listen without ads?

2 Samuel 22 is practically identical to Psalm 18. And what a fitting way to end our Summer 2025 series on Theology, but to study these chapters that so accurately capture the essence of theology.
This Sunday School teaching was taken from the August 17th, 2k25 Sunday morning service at the Jesus is Lord Family Worship Center - 501 Redman St. Jacksonport, AR

Mit unserer Predigtreihe „Den Sommer unter P(s)almen“ tauchen wir in eine der schönsten Literaturgattungen der Bibel ein. Die Psalmen bilden eine Sammlung von Liedern, Gebeten und auch Gedichten. Während sie als Worte von Menschen zu Gott aufgezeichnet wurden, so bilden sie heute Gottes Wort zu uns. Als Wort Gottes werden die Psalmen das Gebetsbuch für die Menschen Gottes, danach zu streben, Gott in allen Lebensumständen treu zu dienen. Hierfür geben uns die Psalmen eine ganzheitliche Konversation mit Gott. Durch Trauer und Lob, Freude und Leid verweisen die Psalmen auf den Glauben und die Hoffnung, welche die Kinder Gottes in allen Lebensumständen trägt.

“I love you, Lord; you are my strength. The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my savior; my God is my rock, in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety. I called on the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and he saved me from my enemies.” (Psalm 18:1–3 NLT) David enjoyed an intimate relationship with God. You can see evidence of that intimacy in the psalms he wrote. “He renews my strength. He guides me along right paths, bringing honor to his name. Even when I walk through the darkest valley, I will not be afraid, for you are close beside me. Your rod and your staff protect and comfort me” (Psalm 23:3–4 NLT). “I love the Lord because he hears my voice and my prayer for mercy. Because he bends down to listen, I will pray as long as I have breath!” (Psalm 116:1–2 NLT). And in 1 Samuel 13:14, Samuel is referring to David when he says, “The Lord has sought out a man after his own heart” (NLT). The relationship between God and David was something special. If you were to ask the average person what they remember about the life of David, the name Goliath most likely would come up. But another name likely would be mentioned as well: Bathsheba. Goliath and Bathsheba represented David’s greatest victory and his greatest defeat. The devil couldn’t beat David on the battlefield, so he took him down in the bedroom. There are subtle clues in Scripture as to how he did it. Notice that before David confronted Goliath, he said, “This is the Lord’s battle, and he will give you to us!” (1 Samuel 17:47 NLT). He was confident not because he possessed superior fighting skills but because he was doing God’s work. For that reason alone, Goliath couldn’t touch him. And neither could the devil. Flash-forward several years. David is king. Instead of leading his army in battle against the Ammonites, David is idling in Jerusalem. He seems to have drifted from his once-intimate relationship with God. Maybe it was due to the pressures of being king—or maybe it was due to the trappings of royalty. Whatever the reason, David lowered his spiritual guard and made himself vulnerable to attack. The devil wasted no time in exploiting the breach. David’s temptation started with a lingering glance at Bathsheba, the wife of Uriah, one of David’s loyal soldiers who was away fighting the Ammonites. It ended with the killing of Uriah, the death of David’s newborn son, and the implosion of David’s family. All because David made himself an easy target for the devil. The devil continues to look for easy targets. He knows that it’s easier to hit something stationary than something that’s on the move. A believer who is moving forward in Christ, who is growing in their love for the Lord, is not nearly as easy to hit as one who’s beginning to relax their grip on the Lord. That’s the one whom the devil will set his sights on. That’s the one who will become his next casualty. Reflection question: What does an intimate relationship with God look like in your life?

This Sunday, we’ll be taking a look at Psalm 18, where we’ll hear the words of King David—seemingly penned at the end of his life. Context matters in songwriting. What does it mean that this psalm is a cumulative reflection on an entire life lived under God’s protection? What can that teach us about how our understanding of God's ways deepens over time? The song referenced in the sermon is "Time" by the artist John Lucas.

Monday - Psalm 18:1-6,46I love you, Lord, my strength. 2 The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield[b] and the horn[c] of my salvation, my stronghold. 3 I called to the Lord, who is worthy of praise, and I have been saved from my enemies. 4 The cords of death entangled me; the torrents of destruction overwhelmed me. 5 The cords of the grave coiled around me; the snares of death confronted me. 6 In my distress I called to the Lord; I cried to my God for help.From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came before him, into his ears.
In this Psalm all the things David praised God for throughout are extensions of God's rock-like nature.
