I have no lack of enemies. There are work, distractions and many many things of this world that needs my attention. It is a never ending from rest.
How david find rest from his enemies and from King Saul? v1And David spoke to the Lord the words of this song on the day when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies, and from the hand of Saul
David experienced the pressure, but
7 “In my distress I called upon the Lord;
to my God I called.
From his temple he heard my voice,
and my cry came to his ears.
How often do I called upon the Lord? How often do I run to Him? Sorry.
I have taken pressure and pleasure into my own hands.
19 They confronted me in the day of my calamity,
but the Lord was my support.
20 He brought me out into a broad place;
he rescued me, because he delighted in me.
I will be busy, but busy for what purposes. Let me be a God fearing man. The key to David having the "support" of the Lord is
21 “The Lord dealt with me according to my righteousness;
according to the cleanness of my hands he rewarded me.
22 For I have kept the ways of the Lord
and have not wickedly departed from my God
23 For all his rules were before me,
and from his statutes I did not turn aside.
24 I was blameless before him,
and I kept myself from guilt.
25 And the Lord has rewarded me according to my righteousness,
according to my cleanness in his sight.
How can I and God be one, if I choose a wicked path. How can I expect God be fighting along side with me? God may choose to stay away from such unrighteous person.
26 “With the merciful you show yourself merciful;
with the blameless man you show yourself blameless;
Set yourself right before God.
30 For by you I can run against a troop,
and by my God I can leap over a wall.
40 For you equipped me with strength for the battle;
you made those who rise against me sink under me.
And this is the promise I want to claim:
44 “You delivered me from strife with my people; [8]
you kept me as the head of the nations;
people whom I had not known served me.
