“Back Story”
Psalm 54: 3, 7: “For strangers have risen against me, and violent men have sought my life; they have not set God before them … For He has delivered me from all trouble; and my eye has looked with satisfaction upon all my enemies.” As we learn from this Psalm’s introduction, it was written by David when the Ziphites ratted him out to Saul, who immediately came to Ziph to crush him. This is his urgent danger in verses 1-3. But, as the story goes in 1 Samuel 23: 19-29, God gave him a miraculous (and humorous) escape; thus, the triumphant verse seven. This can be your testimony, as well, when you follow Him.
