Psalm 54:7 Foes defeated

Psalm 54:7 You have delivered me from all my troubles, and my eyes have looked in triumph on my foes.

This psalm is a psalm of David and one that is intended to be sung by God's people. The heading ties it down to the time when David was on the run from Saul and the Ziphites had told Saul that David was hiding among them but it has many applications. We come to times in our lives, thankfully, when we can say such things as David does in the final verse of the psalm. In this life such statements have to be interim ones but there are times when we can declare how very good God has delivered us from all our troubles. We can say that our eyes have looked in triumph on our enemies the world, the flesh and the devil especially. There is never any reason for complacency but there are moments for thankfulness and what better words than these?
