Psalm 18

Verse six reads,

I called to the Lord in my distress,
and I cried to my God for help.
From His temple He heard my voice,
and my cry to HIm reached His ears.

In that first line, insert Psalms 11, 59, 7, 27, 31, 34, 52, 56, 120, 140-142, 17, 35, 54, and 63 (chronologically referenced) as these are his psalmic prayers of distress that are referenced in verse six.

I wonder sometimes if we would see more results from our prayers if we pursued God in greater earnest as we see here with David as opposed to a flippant, half-hearted expression that resembles a leaking mind more than the stalwart, faith filled prayers of David, prayers that rise to the standard of James 5..."effectual and fervent."
