Salmos 18:6

Psa 18:6 In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: he heard my voice out of his temple, and my cry came before him, [even] into his ears.

Ver. 6. In my distress I called upon the Lord ] This was David’s anchora sacra; sacred anchor, prayer, he knew, could never come too late, nor God want a way to deliver his distressed. The time of affliction is the time of supplication; and man’s extremity is God’s opportunity.

And cried unto my God ] He grew more and more earnest. We must pray and not faint, Luke 18:1 , but rise in our suits.

Out of his temple ] i.e. Heaven, whereof the temple was a type, as being the place of God’s special presence, and of transcendent holiness.
