In today’s passage, David began by declaring that God provided everything that he needed to face life’s battles. In confrontations with his enemies, God gave him skill and dexterity with his weapons. Moreover, the Lord was his foundational rock, his shield, and his place of refuge. What more could a warrior need? Jesus provides the same helps to those with faith in Him. Please open your Bible to Psalm one hundred forty-four, and listen as Pastor Ray Viola begins his study of this chapter.
