Warrior Psalms: Learning to Pray with King David

By John Mabus

The inspiration for these reflections came from the moments in prayer that I spent with warriors prior to their missions. Often, our prayer time would start with reading a portion of one of King David's psalms. King David stands out as the definitive human warrior of the Bible who was also a man after God's own heart. His life was marked by many of the same personal battles that face our contemporary warriors. It is to these dedicated warriors who are a daily inspiration of devotion, selflessness and honor that this book is dedicated.This book contains short reflections on 31 of King David's psalms (possibly to be read over the course of a month). King David's psalms help us draw nearer to God in various types of situations. The reflections are arranged not in the order that the psalms come in the Book of Psalms but arranged by type of psalm. Just like with books (non-fiction, novels, poetry, or comic books), there are different types of psalms. Each type of psalm has its own purpose, characteristics and style. Each week of readings focus on a different type of psalm to explore, understand and apply. It is the purpose of these reflections to point us not just to the great Warrior King David, but to his King and God.
