Psalm 35 - Another Prayer for Victory

Psalm 20 was a prayer for victory prayed over the king before he went into battle. Psalm 35 is actually a prayer for victory, too--or rather three, for there are three distinct prayers within this psalm. So that's what I called it: A Prayer for Victory II, or Another Prayer for Victory.

Psalm 35 is more than just a prayer for victory, though. Psalm 35 is an imprecatory psalm where David calls on God to defeat his enemies. Rather than covering Psalm 35 verse by verse as I have most of the other psalms, I instead treated it more in a topical manner and talked a little about the nature of an imprecatory psalm, the difference between the Old Testament and the New, and what the nature of the Christian's warfare is.

Here is the outline I used:

I. An Imprecatory Psalm and What That Means.

 II. The Christian and His Enemies.

III. The Nature of Christian Warfare.

 IV. What Victory Means in Our Lives.

  V.  What the Psalm Teaches Us About Faith.

 VI. When Ultimate Victory Comes.

VII. Where Jesus is in the Psalm.
