22:11-16
Prayer is not just a pious act, but an act that initiates a very real response from the Lord. That is why we are urged by Jesus to have faith. It is why David uses such dramatic language to describe the response. God acted against David’s enemies, scattering them. God’s actions also had an effect on the earth itself.
22:17
The Lord “reached down from on high and took hold of me”. David’s help came from the Lord, it came from the throne room of heaven. Again, it was personal, God cares for each of us personally. We find it hard to comprehend how this can be, but it is true. Jesus confirmed this when He said that even the hairs on our head are counted (Lk 12:7). “He drew me out of deep waters”. David wasn’t just in a little bit of trouble, was in a lot of trouble. The Lord is able to save us from deep trouble.
