Call to the Lord in my distress

2 Samuel 22:1-20
The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer.
In my distress I called to the Lord; I called out to my God. From his temple he heard my voice; my cry came to this ears.
The earth trembled and quaked, the foundations of the heavens shook; they trembled because he was angry. Smoke rose from his nostrils; consuming fire came from his mouth burning cols blazed out of it.
He brought me out into a spacious place; he rescued me because he delighted in me.
This is virtually identical with Psalm 18, and can be compared with Mose's song in Deuteronomy 32. It belongs to the period of David' great early victories.
Why?
Rock is firm stand that won't sinking down.
Fortress is strong wall to protect from the attack of enemies.
Deliverer is life savior who is the Lord, Jesus Christ.
So when in my distress I call to my Lord.
When Lord is angry no one can stand before him.
How?
Call to the Lord in my distress, he is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer.
