Psalm 18 “I Will…” reminds us that just as David knew God as his strength, rock, and deliverer, we too can have a real, personal relationship with God that leads us to love, trust, and call upon the Lord.

1. My Strength
Quote — Erasmus
Erasmus said, “It is the greatest proof that a man has been rejected by divine mercy when he is assailed by no temptations. Let the words of Paul the Apostle, who deserved to be admitted to the mysteries of the third heaven and yet was buffeted by the angel of Satan, come to mind. Let Job, the friend of God, come to your aid, Jerome, Benedict, Francis, and with them countless other holy Fathers of the church, who were tormented by the greatest vices. If your sufferings were the common lot of so many great men, why are you dejected? Strive rather to be victorious with them. God will not abandon you and he will provide you with a means of escape so that you may be able to endure it.”
— Desiderius Erasmus of Rotterdam (1466–1536), Dutch priest, scholar, and writer during the Renaissance

I will...
1. I will love You
2. I will trust You
3. I will call upon You
Like David, may we know God as our strength, rock, fortress, deliverer, shield, salvation, and stronghold — and may we respond with a heart that says, “I will love You, I will trust You, and I will call upon You.”
