Delivered from Distress

Read:  Psalm 100 / Proverbs 06 / 1 Samuel 30 /John 17

Psalm 100:2,4 Serve the LORD with gladness: come before his presence... be thankful unto him, and bless his name. 
Proverbs 6:3,5 Do this now, my son, and deliver thyself... go, humble thyself... Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.
1 Samuel 30:6 David was greatly distressed... but David encouraged himself in the LORD his God.
John 17:15 I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil.

The Lord delivered from distress
His servants when they humbly prayed. 
By their example of success,
The Lord's deliverance is displayed. 

We ought to pray with confidence
That God will likewise guard us too,
For He Himself is our Defense,
And all His promises are true.
