In this sermon from Pastor David Mathis, we learn from Psalm 60 the spiritual dynamic of fleeing to God in our devastation. God's sovereignty inspires our hope, we should flee to the banner of his word, we should call upon his decisive action in prayer, and we should know that God protects his own – without even breaking a sweat.

In this sermon, Pastor Kenny Ortiz exposits David's feelings of being hunted by Saul's men in Psalm 59. God has determined David to be the next king and it is laughable to try and stop God's plan. David is confident in the steadfast love of God, therefore he will build his life upon this truth. Thus, he does not seek vengeance when the spears are hurling toward him. When faced with persecution, do not throw back – suffer the mistreatment and ask God for his deliverance.
