^{Who is God?}

^{2 SAMUEL 22: 31-37} 

^{THE MESSAGE}

Is there any god like God?
      Are we not at bedrock?
   Is not this the God who armed me well,
      then aimed me in the right direction?
   Now I run like a deer;
      I'm king of the mountain.
   He shows me how to fight;
      I can bend a bronze bow!
   You protect me with salvation-armor;
      you touch me and I feel ten feet tall.
   You cleared the ground under me
      so my footing was firm.

Despite his larger than average imperfections, David is known for being a man after God's heart. The context of the above passage is after David's adultery with Bathsheba, after losing his throne to Absalom, after regaining his throne-- after the unfortunate loss of Absalom. Chapter 22 of Second Samuel is towards the conclusion of David's story. In the above scripture David brings attention to his saving-protection, shield, strength, and source of authority--GOD.
