‘Cry Out To The Lord Then Sing.’
Psalm 18:1-6.
On the day when we celebrate the rescue of the Chilean miners we can identify with them through David’s experience.
a) Psalm 18:1. David sang this song on the day that the Lord rescued him from His enemies. He expressed his love for the Lord and the desire to sing to Him.
b) Psalm 18:2. The Lord is:-
1- His Rock in whom he finds protection.
2- His Fortress.
3- His Saviour.
4- His Shield.
5- The Strength of his Salvation.
6- His Stronghold.
c) Psalm 18:3. David called upon the Lord Who is Worthy to be Praised. The Lord Saves him from his enemies.
d) Psalm 18:4. The danger of death and destruction had been all around him.
e) Psalm 18:5. The grave and death had stared him in the face.
f) Psalm 18:6. In his distress David cried out to the Lord and he prayed to Him for help. The Lord heard him from His Sanctuary.
(Through this Second one I know that I can Cry Out To The Lord Then Sing)

Sometimes, just like the Chilean miners or King David the grave and death maybe staring us in the face. Life seems to be coming to an end and hope is being lost. When we face such situations we can surely, as True Believers, cry out to the Lord.
