Psalm 18: David continuous to praise the unfailing love of God toward Him and all other righteous people who obey Him.
Psalm 19: "May these words of my mouth and this meditation of my heart be pleasing in your sight, Lord, my Rock and my Redeemer." David could say this prayer because he meditated on the law of the Lord (word).
Psalm 20: "Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God." Here, we can see again how David fully trusts the Lord and what his stronghold/refuge is. I also hope to say a similar prayer such as " Some trust in money and good life of the earth, but I trust in the name of the Lord our God."
Psalm 21: David truly rejoices in the strength that the Lord provides him with. Surely, he had distressful days but the unfailing love of the Most High has kept watch over him and has guided him throughout.
Psalm 22: At the same time, we can see a frightened David who seeks the protection and guidance of the Lord from all his enemies and pursuers. He realizes that his enemies are surrounding him and at this point, David's only strength and refuge is in the Lord. Therefore, David petitions to the Lord not to forsake him.
Psalm 23:... your rod and your staff, they comfort me.... seems to mean that God's Lordship and guiding hands are with us and comfort us (giving us as peace).
Psalm 24: "The Lord Almighty— he is the King of glory." So we can see David's firm faith and belief in the Lord Almighty. The Lord Almighty seeks to find the one who has clean hands and a pure heart,who does not trust in an idol or swear by a false god." We have to arise and follow this calling.
