KEY VERSE: The LORD liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation – 2 Samuel 22:47
TEXT: 2 Samuel 22:45-51 (KJV)
45 Strangers shall submit themselves unto me: as soon as they hear, they shall be obedient unto me.
46 Strangers shall fade away, and they shall be afraid out of their close places.
47 The Lord liveth; and blessed be my rock; and exalted be the God of the rock of my salvation.
48 It is God that avengeth me, and that bringeth down the people under me.
49 And that bringeth me forth from mine enemies: thou also hast lifted me up on high above them that rose up against me: thou hast delivered me from the violent man.
50 Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O Lord, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name.
51 He is the tower of salvation for his king: and sheweth mercy to his anointed, unto David, and to his seed for evermore.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
Not many people sufficiently know how to praise God for who He is nor do many offer thanksgiving to Him for all He does. Unknown to them, worship and thanksgiving attract further multi-dimensional blessings from God’s exalted throne of grace and mercy.
Our text today consists of the closing lines of the song of praise that David offered at the end of his life. Running through the song is the unmistakable strong undercurrent of appreciation from the lips of this fallen yet faithful king to the everfaithful God. In putting the song together, David paraded the exploits, conquests, and victories garnered through God’s providence. Observers might see David more visibly in the larger picture but not the psalmist of Israel. He knew that it was the Lord who made him strong.

He chronicles God’s inexhaustible mercies that subdued his enemies under his footstool, kept his own people well under his leadership, gave him an upper hand over his adversaries, and delivered him from bloodthirsty Saul, mischievous Doeg, ambitious Absalom, malicious Ahitophel, insubordinate Joab and rebellious Shimei. In return for his divine deliverance, David exultantly declares, ”Therefore I will give thanks unto thee, O LORD, among the heathen, and I will sing praises unto thy name”. David’s heart had an outburst of praise and thanksgiving for the Lord, who had become his rock, fortress, deliverer, stronghold, refuge, and Saviour. Notably, David’s life, marked by numerous testimonies, was characterised by his unwavering trust in God and absolute submission to His will. As his life tailed to an end, he stood tall, looked back and chronicled God’s faithfulness.

Today’s saints are not in any way different from David. Can you also allow the Lord to sit on the throne of your heart as you completely submit to Him in adversity or prosperity, in commendation or condemnation, in peace or war? Can you look back and see how the Lord has been your Saviour and deliverer from the fiendish clutches of sin, your Sanctifier who sets free from the propensity to sin, your peace and Comforter in chaotic times and amid crisis? We must, like David, let go in joyful, exuberant praise and acknowledge His faithfulness despite our human inadequacies.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Praise to God gets to Him as a precious sweet-smelling offering.

1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
