THEME: VICTORY IN CHRIST
2 Samuel 22:47-51
“The Lord lives! Praise be to my Rock! Exalted be my God, the Rock, my Savior! He is the God who avenges me, who puts the nations under me, who sets me free from my enemies. You exalted me above my foes; from a violent man you rescued me. Therefore I will praise you, Lord, among the nations; I will sing the praises of your name. “He gives his king great victories; he shows unfailing kindness to his anointed, to David and his descendants forever.”
INSIGHT
-Victory in Hebrew is written as teshuah and it means to triumph, win, conquer and succeed. It can be defined as a success over an enemy in battle or war or an engagement ending in such triumph. King David knew the secret of winning his battles and he put all his trust in the Lord. He completed the conquest begun by Joshua and secured all the boarders. He did not rely on his own strength but enquired of the Lord before his conquest. He defeated the Philistines through a divine strategy that the Lord gave him, as he instructed him saying, “Do not go straight up, but circle around behind them and attack them in front of the poplar tree” (2 Samuel 5:23). He conquered the Jebusite fortress of Jerusalem (2 Samuel 5:6-10), he defeated the Moabites who opposed his authority (2 Samuel 8:2), he defeated the Aramean kingdoms of Hadadezer, Damascus and Maakah, and put them under tribute (2 Samuel 8:3-8), he subdued Edom and incorporated it under his empire (2 Samuel 8:13-14), he also defeated Ammonites and brought them into subjection (2 Samuel 12:26-31). The Lord gave David victory wherever he went (2 Samuel 8:14). In Psalm 20:7 king David notes that, some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. The Lord established his kingdom forever through Jesus Christ. The Lord promised to give the people an inheritance which He faithfully did. This was a picture of an eternal inheritance that we receive when we believe in Jesus Christ. It is through faith in God that we obtain victory through the challenges that we face in our live, and have an eternal blessing through Jesus Christ. Jesus is the Prince of peace and calls all people and nations to have peace through Him.
