（ 耶 和 華 的 僕 人 大 衛 的 詩 ， 交 與 伶 長 。 當 耶 和 華 救 他 脫 離 一 切 仇 敵 和 掃 羅 之 手 的 日 子 ， 他 向 耶 和 華 念 這 詩 的 話 。 說 ： ） 耶 和 華 ， 我 的 力 量 啊 ， 我 愛 你 ！
2 耶 和 華 是 我 的 巖 石 ， 我 的 山 寨 ， 我 的 救 主 ， 我 的 神 ， 我 的 磐 石 ， 我 所 投 靠 的 。 他 是 我 的 盾 牌 ， 是 拯 救 我 的 角 ， 是 我 的 高 臺 。
2 耶 和 華 是 我 的 巖 石 ， 我 的 山 寨 ， 我 的 救 主 ， 我 的 神 ， 我 的 磐 石 ， 我 所 投 靠 的 。 他 是 我 的 盾 牌 ， 是 拯 救 我 的 角 ， 是 我 的 高 臺 。
3 我 要 求 告 當 讚 美 的 耶 和 華 ； 這 樣 我 必 從 仇 敵 手 中 被 救 出 來 。
詩篇 18:1-3
1. 求聖靈在你生命中工作
"親愛的聖靈, 求你光照我心靈的深處, 使我看見我的罪, 我和主耶穌的阻隔,
求你幫助, 奉主耶穌基督名求。阿們。"
2. 透過聖靈的工作, 安靜一刻, 省察自己, 之後祈禱:
「親愛的主耶穌，感謝你為我的罪釘死在十字架上，我願意在你面前承認我的罪（凡聖靈光照到的，請逐一說出），求你用你的寶血赦免我的罪，我願意打開心門讓你作我的救主，求你救贖我，我願意一生跟隨你讓你作我生命的主，求你帶領我。聖靈，求你充滿我，使我得著恩賜及力量去事奉主、見證主。奉主耶穌基督名求，阿們。」
聆聽主話 (撒母耳記下 22:1-51)
當 耶 和 華 救 大 衛 脫 離 一 切 仇 敵 和 掃 羅 之 手 的 日 子 ， 他 向 耶 和 華 念 這 詩 ，
2 說 ： 耶 和 華 是 我 的 巖 石 ， 我 的 山 寨 ， 我 的 救 主 ，
3 我 的 神 ， 我 的 磐 石 ， 我 所 投 靠 的 。 他 是 我 的 盾 牌 ， 是 拯 救 我 的 角 ， 是 我 的 高 臺 ， 是 我 的 避 難 所 。 我 的 救 主 啊 ， 你 是 救 我 脫 離 強 暴 的 。
撒母耳記下 22:1-3
現在讓你有一段安靜的時間, 給聖靈一個空間, 讓主耶穌可以藉着你剛才讀過的經文, 對你說話:
我的聆聽
If you read 2 Samuel 22 and then Psalm 18 now, you'll find that it is almost a copy and paste piece of work. So, what is the main difference? Please try to stop reading now and go to read that.
Well, if you have not done that, then you miss something. The joy of searching!

讓我們聽聽 John Goldingay 教授的教導:
It piles up images to glorify God as the great protector. That was the way God had proven to be God for David in those years when he was on the run from Saul. God was a rock he could climb on, a shield he could protect himself behind, a refuge he could hide in…
The fact that this song appears as Psalm 18 in the book of Psalms in a slightly different version, with a link to this story, indicates that it's for people like us to use in our prayer and praise; it isn't just for David.

For me, I find it very interesting and moving because 2 Samuel 22 does not have the verse 1 of Psalm 18, "I love you, O Lord, my strength."
2 Samuel 22 is David's personal reflection of God as his King and Lord. Psalm 18 is a song of praise David wanted to teach his people and us. And, I think that's his years of thanksgiving to make him add the most important word that he wanted to say to God. Just like a husband, a man who does not know how to say "I love you." to his wife and at last he say so! Wow! That's like atomic bomb, deepest love ever expressed in the Bible!
I would like to invite you to sing "I love you Lord" now together with me to say "I love you" to our Lord Jesus Christ to show our love to Him, to experience His love and presence now. May be you can kneel down to sing this song to Jesus. Kneel down to pray and to praise the Lord as often as you can is the best way to experience His presence and His power!
I love you, Lord, and I lift my voice
To worship you,
O my soul, rejoice!
Take joy, my King,
In what you hear,
May it be a sweet, sweet sound
In your ear.

1. How do you feel about David's love to God? What has it to do with you?
2. Have you experienced your song of praise is being heard by our Lord Jesus Christ? In what sense?
