David’s 911 Call For Help! (2 Of 2)

Contributed by Dr. Odell Belger on Apr 4, 2022

We want to look again at the imprecatory prayer of David in Psalm 35.

He has to be careful because it would be easy to convey to people that we can use God to strike back at our enemies. This is not what the Bible teaches. In fact, it teaches just the opposite.
