Pastor Lowell Nelson teaches on Psalm 18 "The theology of God's willingness to answer prayer and our response" on 11/12/2025 for our Wednesday service.

Psalm 18 is the other half of the coin of Psalm 10-13  Faith in times of distress.  It is true because of Psalm 14-17  Step by Step salvation

This Psalm 18 is very similar and close to 2 Samuel 22
David declared a Physical Deliverance over his enemies.  We in Christ can claim a spiritual deliverance over sin. Our real enemy.

Verse 1-3  The Strong Deliverer:  He is our Strength.  
Verse 4-6 The Sudden Distress: The Cry of the overwhelmed Saint
Verse 7-15  The Sovereign Descent:  God…. To the rescue
Verse 16-19  The Sure Deliverance:  Confidence of deliverance and His Delight in me!
Verse 20-27 The Standard  Covenant righteousness.
Verse 28-36  Spiritual Enablement:  It is God who equips the saint
Verse 37-45  Supremacy of Strength and Success:  Because of Gods enablement in VS 32. David experiences overwhelming Supremacy
Verse 46-50  Sing Praises Exalt God simply because He is worthy to be exalted.
