Psalm 18:16–19

"He reached down from heaven and rescued me;
he drew me out of deep waters.
He rescued me from my powerful enemies,
from those who hated me and were too strong for me.
They attacked me at a moment when I was in distress,
but the LORD supported me.
He led me to a place of safety;
he rescued me because he delights in me."
 
In the world we have enemies, as David did, people who long to trip us up. The way of the world is to attack at our weakest point. Yet God delivers us simply because he cares for us. He delights in us when we trust him and make him our focus. Our trust triggers his power on our behalf. Trust—even when enemies seem to have the upper hand. It's only a matter of time before he reaches down from heaven and rescues you.
