Psalm 37:35 "I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree." - David has seen the wicked in power. He has experienced persecution from the wicked as he chases David with the soul purpose of killing him. David had been rejected, betrayed, and chased over the hill sides of Jerusalem, yet David knew what he was annointed to do, be king. Take a lesson from this king, remain faithful.
