Psalms 54

What a great before and after picture. 

Verses 1-3 are David's plea to God for deliverance from the ruthless strangers that have sought to kill him.
But, then you see Selah.  Selah is a pause or break. So you have this break or a musical buildup and then the clincher..

Verses 4-7 proclaim God's faithfulness to deliver. God continues to be the "upholder of my life".

Even today we have those that come up against us. Those that try to destroy us and bring us down. But, remember that God is there to give strength, just like he did to David and Christ.
