This is a description of David’s victories against those who were also the enemies of God. The New Testament teaches us that we can and will have victories against the enemies of God today as we obey Jesus Our King (1 John 5:1-5). But the author of 2 Samuel does not give supreme credit to David for these victories. Twice, he reminds us of this (verses 6,14): “And the Lord preserved David (made David victorious) whithersoever he went.”
