“The
Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom
I trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” Psalm 18:2
Of course, since the prosperity
gospel preachers are really telling the truth, we really don’t need this verse
of great promises. But since they are not telling the truth and are false
teachers who wound many souls, then we all need every single promise from Psalm
18:2. This could be called the “week-long psalm” because it contains security
for every day of the week. There are seven powerful assurances of God’s care
for His children.
When the waves of life beat against
us we have a rock that will not move. When Satan sends his forces against us we
have a fortress that cannot be assailed. When we become captive to our own lust
we have a deliverer who will set us free. When we are weak we have the God who
is strong. When we are in doubt we have someone we can absolutely trust. When
we face a direct assault from our adversary we have a shield that cannot be
bent or broken. When we are lost and hopeless Christ points us to His cross and
says I am the way of salvation. When panic overtakes our feeble ability to cope
with life, He is the panic room where we are safe. This is our God who is able
to keep that which we have committed unto Him against that day.
Dear
Father, Thank You for being our sure support and defense every single day.
Amen.
