VI. TITLE

Deliverance from the LORD

VII. EXPLICATION:

A. Authors: Samuel (Israel's last greatest judge) - some parts of it, Nathan and Gad (1 Samuel 10:25, 1 Chronicles 29:29) and some say it's Anonymous

1 Samuel 10:25 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)

Then Samuel told the people what the rights and duties of a king were. He wrote them down on a scroll and placed it before the Lord. Then Samuel sent the people home again.

1 Chronicles 29:29 (New Living Translation, Second Edition)

All the events of King David’s reign, from beginning to end, are written in The Record of Samuel the Seer, The Record of Nathan the Prophet, and The Record of Gad the Seer.

B. Purpose of writing: Account of the history of Israel from 12th to 10th B.C.

VIII. MAIN BODY:

A. Deliverance from wicked ruler/wicked enemies symbolized by lion, bear and Philistines

"David said, The Lord Who delivered me out of the paw of the lion and out of the paw of the bear, He will deliver me out of the hand of this Philistine."

Proverbs 28:15 (Amplified Bible)

28:15 Like a roaring lion or a ravenous and charging bear is a wicked ruler over a poor people.

Paw is symbolized by "hand of our enemies".

Psalms 18:1 (Amplified Bible)

18:1 To the Chief Musician. [A Psalm] of David the servant of the Lord, who spoke the words of this song to the Lord on the day when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. And he said: I LOVE You fervently and devotedly, O Lord, my Strength.

King David acknowledged the LORD who is our Strength and Helper who delivered us from our enemies.

Psalms 18:3 (Amplified Bible)

18:3 I will call upon the Lord, Who is to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies.

Our enemies are used by the LORD so that we will call upon Him frequently.

The enemies seem to be above and over us, but later on we will be delivered from their power and authority by the LORD.

2 Timothy 4:18 (Amplified Bible)

4:18 [And indeed] the Lord will certainly deliver and draw me to Himself from every assault of evil. He will preserve and bring me safe unto His heavenly kingdom. To Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen (so be it).

Sure and guaranteed deliverance from our enemies are two ways: (1) either by rapture, or (2) death.

2 Corinthians 1:9-10 (Amplified Bible)

1:9 Indeed, we felt within ourselves that we had received the [very] sentence of death, but that was to keep us from trusting in and depending on ourselves instead of on God Who raises the dead.

1:10 [For it is He] Who rescued and saved us from such a perilous death, and He will still rescue and save us; in and on Him we have set our hope (our joyful and confident expectation) that He will again deliver us [from danger and destruction and draw us to Himself],

As for me we are not yet delivered from our enemies it's a daily ongoing spiritual battle because the god of this world is still not GOD.

2 Corinthians 4:4 (Amplified Bible)

4:4 For the god of this world has blinded the unbelievers’ minds [that they should not discern the truth], preventing them from seeing the illuminating light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ (the Messiah), Who is the Image and Likeness of God.

Ephesians 2:2 (Amplified Bible)

2:2 In which at one time you walked [habitually]. You were following the course and fashion of this world [were under the sway of the tendency of this present age], following the prince of the power of the air. [You were obedient to and under the control of] the [demon] spirit that still constantly works in the sons of disobedience [the careless, the rebellious, and the unbelieving, who go against the purposes of God].

Matthew 12:43-45 (Amplified Bible)

12:43 But when the unclean spirit has gone out of a man, it roams through dry [arid] places in search of rest, but it does not find any.

12:44 Then it says, I will go back to my house from which I came out. And when it arrives, it finds the place unoccupied, swept, put in order, and decorated.

12:45 Then it goes and brings with it seven other spirits more wicked than itself, and they go in and make their home there. And the last condition of that man becomes worse than the first. So also shall it be with this wicked generation.

That's whey when we share the gospel of salvation to an unbeliever we do binding and losing first, then we share the gospel in haste and in conclusion we allow the hearer to receive the LORD JESUS CHRIST in His life or else the devil will find it swept clean and decorated but there's no stronger man that dwells within - the LORD JESUS CHRIST so the receiver without accepting the LORD will end up worse than before. Strong man is the devil, but stronger than he is the LORD.

Luke 11:22 (Amplified Bible)

11:22 But when one stronger than he attacks him and conquers him, he robs him of his whole armor on which he had relied and divides up and distributes all his goods as plunder (spoil).

Ephesians 6:12 (Amplified Bible)

6:12 For we are not wrestling with flesh and blood [contending only with physical opponents], but against the despotisms, against the powers, against [the master spirits who are] the world rulers of this present darkness, against the spirit forces of wickedness in the heavenly (supernatural) sphere.

B. The LORD is with me

"And Saul said to David, Go, and the Lord be with you!"

Even if the god of this world is not our GOD, still we have protection from GOD.

1 John 4:4 (Amplified Bible)

4:4 Little children, you are of God [you belong to Him] and have [already] defeated and overcome them [the agents of the antichrist], because He Who lives in you is greater (mightier) than he who is in the world.

John 16:33 (Amplified Bible)

16:33 I have told you these things, so that in Me you may have [perfect] peace and confidence. In the world you have tribulation and trials and distress and frustration; but be of good cheer [take courage; be confident, certain, undaunted]! For I have overcome the world. [I have deprived it of power to harm you and have conquered it for you.]

1 John 5:4 (Amplified Bible)

5:4 For whatever is born of God is victorious over the world; and this is the victory that conquers the world, even our faith.

We continue to live in faith not by sight or appearance in the midst of this perverse and evil world.

2 Corinthians 10:3 (Amplified Bible)

10:3 For though we walk (live) in the flesh, we are not carrying on our warfare according to the flesh and using mere human weapons.

2 Corinthians 10:4 (Amplified Bible)

10:4 For the weapons of our warfare are not physical [weapons of flesh and blood], but they are mighty before God for the overthrow and destruction of strongholds,

The LORD is with me promises in the bible:

1. The LORD is with me as a Mighty and Terrible One -our persecutors will stumble and they will not overcome me.

Jeremiah 20:11 (Amplified Bible)

20:11 But the Lord is with me as a mighty and terrible One; therefore my persecutors will stumble, and they will not overcome [me]. They will be utterly put to shame, for they will not deal wisely or prosper [in their schemes]; their eternal dishonor will never be forgotten.

2. I shall see my desire established upon my enemies for the LORD is on my side

Psalms 118:6-7 (Amplified Bible)

118:6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear. What can man do to me?

118:7 The Lord is on my side and takes my part, He is among those who help me; therefore shall I see my desire established upon those who hate me.

3. The LORD is my Helper, I will not fear or be terrified.

Hebrews 13:6 (Amplified Bible)

13:6 So we take comfort and are encouraged and confidently and boldly say, The Lord is my Helper; I will not be seized with alarm [I will not fear or dread or be terrified]. What can man do to me?

4. The LORD is my Refuge and Stronghold - of whom shall I be afraid

Psalms 27:1 (Amplified Bible)

27:1 [A Psalm] of David. THE LORD is my Light and my Salvation—whom shall I fear or dread? The Lord is the Refuge and Stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?

IX. CONCLUSION:

Praise, worship and thank You very much LORD JESUS for You have delivered me from my enemies for You are with me.
