Dissecting the Psalm about Absalom SERIES: 4

"A Psalm of David, when he fled from Absalom his Son.

I cried unto the LORD with my voice,
and he heard me out of his holy hill.
Selah.
Psalm 3:4

Verse 4. "I cried unto the Lord with my voice." Why doth he say, "with my voice?" Surely, silent prayers are heard. Yes, but good men often find that, even in secret, they pray better aloud than they
do when they utter no vocal sound. ....the cry of my voice in great distress pierces the very skies, hath, "heard me out of his holy hill."

Answers to prayers are sweet cordials for the soul.
Here stands another Selah.

Rest awhile, O tried believer, and change the strain to a softer air."
Charles Spurgeon
