Remember how God has saved us

In 2 Chronicles 22:1-30 and 2, David gives thanks for God for what he has done in his life.  This section is from Psalm 18 as well.  In this verses, David thanks God for saving him and protecting him for people that want to destroy his life.  At this time, Saul was going after David trying to kill him.  David is recognized as being the son of Jesse his family line.  Also, he was described as man who was raised on high; which described how he feared God.  Another aspect David was described as was an anoited of the God of Jacob, which means in Jacob's family line.  Lastly,  David is described as making an everlasting covenant with God that his house will stand strong.
In these chapters,  David praises God for being his shield and his rock.  He also praises God for being his strong fortress.  David repeatedly praises God for being his protector in times of need.  He remembers how God has saved his from his enemies.  He acknowledges that God's presence his with him at all times.  Lastly, David trusted that God would deliver him in these trials.
These chapters and Psalm 18 are a reminder to me that God will deliver me in trials in my life.  God is rock, fortress, and protector.  We have to constantly praise God for who he is and how he has saved us in the past like David did.  Our God is our deliverer and savior from anything we may face or go through.  He knows the situations and circumstances that we face in life.
