Summary: - 2 Kings 6:8-17 - praying is engaging with God in a personal way - Ps. 35:1-10 - imagine and see God as your defender when you pray - see your weakness as your enemy and ask God to defend you - see God standing up - Hebrew is to arise in a hostile sense, become powerful, come on the scene - see God blocking the way - also draw out the spear and stop those who pursue you - see God speaking to you - God saying "I am your salvation" - see your enemies confounded, confused, turning back - resist temptation by replacing the thought with something else - see angels working on your behalf - see your enemies tangled in their own net - see your soul joyful in God - see yourself delivered from that which is too strong for you - this is the posture of humility
