1. God is worthy of our praise (1-6)

The Lord is my rock" is the theme of David's song of praise. The Lord is our rock, our fortress and our deliverer. He is our firm foundation, our shelter, and our savior. Our God is worthy of praise and thanksgiving. David experienced a tremendous number of trials and tribulations. He confronted Goliath, fought the Philistines, evaded Saul's army, and expanded the nation - just to name a few of the situations he faced. David was victorious in all these things. What was his secret to success? He called on the Lord and the Lord saved him from all his enemies.

2. A mighty savior (7-20)

God hears us when we cry out to him. God heard David's cries and responded with a tremendous anger against his adversaries. He saved David with the same might and power that shook Mount Sinai and parted the Red Sea. Our enemies will never be able to stand against our God! David says that the Lord rescued him and brought him to a spacious place. It reminds us of how God brought Israel out of Egypt and into the Promised Land. God did all of this because he delighted in David. Like David, we can place our trust in God because we know that his love endures forever.
