Sing It Again
2 Samuel 22 is a prayer song David sang after God saved him from his enemies. After a very difficult season in his life, David praised God for the victory He gave.
Years later, David still had the song in his heart. He was older and as he looked back on all God had done for him throughout his life, the familiar words sprung to his mind. He took the old song, and as one commentator says, “David polished it up a bit.” He took the song to the temple and it became part of the worship music of his day.

You can view David’s song of victory and thanksgiving today by going to Psalm 18. It would be impossible to ever grow tired of the beautiful words of the Psalm. The major difference in 2 Samuel 22 and Psalm 18 is the first verse. In the American Standard Version the first verse of Psalm 18 says, ”I love you, O Lord, my strength.”
David added his love for God to the song at the very beginning. Perhaps he realized the most important thing before thanking God, before proclaiming the mighty victory, was to simply tell God he loved Him. As you praise God today for the victories He has brought in your life, remember to first tell Him how much you love Him. Sing it again and again. I don’t think He ever gets tired of hearing your song.
