Psalm 18 is a powerful song of victory and gratitude. David praises God for delivering him from his enemies, especially King Saul. He describes God as his rock, fortress, and rescuer. David recounts how he cried out in distress, and God responded with thunder, fire, and power to save him. He declares that God rewards the faithful, strengthens the humble, and defeats the wicked. The psalm ends with David exalting God as his shield, savior, and king who gives him victory and secures his reign.

It’s a psalm of rescue, strength, and triumph through God alone.
