At first blush, no one likes it when we have “one of those days.” However, we need “those days” because the general nature of our sin is thinking we are the center of everything going on. Throughout history, one wag, or several wags, put it something like this: Every person is the hero of their own life. What God calls us to is: “Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind let each of you regard one another as more important than himself;” Philippians 2:3 For King David, his great season from 2 Samuel 2 began when all Israel submitted, and he was challenged and insulted. He defeated his challengers and took over the City of David, the stronghold (Jerusalem). He was gifted a house and started sinning like the tyrants around him. Then, the “Philistines” came and gave David one of those challenging days. He held up, then prayed, then fought and won, then gave God the glory, declaring: “So David came to Baal-perazim, and defeated them there; and he said, “The LORD has broken through my enemies before me like the breakthrough of waters.” Therefore he named that place Baal-perazim.” 2 Samuel 5:20 “Those days” lead us to run back to God and ask Him to break through for us, resulting in our peace and safety and our humility as we give God the glory He is due. "What a man is on his knees before God, that he is and nothing more."
