My Stronghold

Oct22

The Lord lives, and blessed be my rock; And exalted be the God of my salvation,
Psalms 18:46 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.18.46.NASB1995

God is alive! His Holy Spirit lives in me. He is my solid rock when the storm rages. He is my fortress when the enemy attacks. He is my deliverer from the fear of death. He is my endurance in this race of life. He is my Redeemer.

One day Jesus will return. Are you ready to meet Him?

As for me, I know that my Redeemer lives, And at the last He will take His stand on the earth.
Job 19:25 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/job.19.25.NASB1995

🌹The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge; My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.

God’s Heart

Oct10

Precious in the sight of the Lord Is the death of His godly ones.
Psalms 116:15 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.116.15.NASB1995

He will rescue (redeem) their life (soul) from oppression and violence, And their blood will be precious in his sight;
Psalms 72:14 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.72.14.NASB1995

I wonder . . . does God’s heart break at the death of a lost soul? For the one who rejects His offer of refuge? Of redemption?

As for God, His way is blameless; The word of the Lord is tried; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.
Psalms 18:30 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.18.30.NASB1995

My shield is with God, Who saves the upright in heart. God is a righteous judge, And a God who has indignation every day. If a man does not repent, He will sharpen His sword; He has bent His bow and made it ready.
Psalms 7:10-12 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.7.10-12.NASB1995


Trust in Him at all times, O people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us. Selah.
Psalms 62:8 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.62.8.NASB1995

🌹On God my salvation and my glory rest; The rock of my strength, my refuge is in God.

Psalms 18:4-5 NASB1995

Then I called upon the name of the Lord: “O Lord, I beseech You, save my life (deliver my soul)!”

Psalms 25:20 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.25.20.NASB1995

For Your lovingkindness toward me is great, And You have delivered my soul from the depths of Sheol.
Psalms 86:13 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.86.13.NASB1995

🌹For You have delivered my soul from death, Indeed my feet from stumbling, So that I may walk before God In the light of the living.
Psalms 56:13 NASB1995
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.56.13.NASB1995

Psalms 37:39 NASB1995‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.37.39.NASB1995

God approves, has regard for, the way of the righteous. The righteous know where their salvation and refuge comes from. Are you one who takes refuge in the Lord, trusting in His strength, secure in His stronghold?

30 Days of Thanks – D24

Nov24

It is good to give thanks to the Lord And to sing praises to Your name, O Most High;
To declare Your lovingkindness in the morning And Your faithfulness by night,
Psalms‬ ‭92:1‭-‬2 ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.92.1.NASB1995

God is a 24 hour God. He is always available. When we walk with God, we walk morning and night. We are His to be used by 24 hours a day. How many blessings and His glory do we miss because we are caught up in our own ways instead of His way. It is good to give thanks to the Lord all day long and sing, even if it is not verbally. Then you will see His lovingkindness and declare it!

‭‭Praise the Lord! For it is good to sing praises to our God; For it is pleasant and praise is becoming.
Psalms‬ ‭147:1‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.147.1.NASB1995

‭‭Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; Sing praises to His name, for it is lovely.
Psalms‬ ‭135:3‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.135.3.NASB1995

‭‭🌹But as for me, I shall sing of Your strength; Yes, I shall joyfully sing of Your lovingkindness in the morning, For You have been my stronghold And a refuge in the day of my distress.
Psalms‬ ‭59:16‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.59.16.NASB1995

Bold Living, God’s Goodness

Oct12

Teach me Your way, O Lord, And lead me in a level path Because of my foes (those who lie in wait for me).
Do not deliver me over to the desire of my adversaries, For false witnesses have risen against me, And such as breathe out violence.
I would have despaired unless I had believed that I would see the goodness of the Lord In the land of the living.
Psalms‬ ‭27:11‭-‬13‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.27.11.NASB1995

What great hope we have in Jesus. Jesus is the life. Life that begins the moment of confession, that He is Lord of our life. God is good and He shows His goodness even in the hardest of times.

How great is Your goodness, Which You have stored up for those who fear You, Which You have wrought for those who take refuge in You, Before the sons of men!
Psalms‬ ‭31:19‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.31.19.NASB1995

Lord God, show the way.

Make me know Your ways, O Lord; Teach me Your paths.
Psalms‬ ‭25:4‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.25.4.NASB1995

‭‭Teach me Your way, O Lord; I will walk in Your truth; Unite my heart to fear Your name.
Psalms‬ ‭86:11‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.86.11.NASB1995
‭‭
O Lord, lead me in Your righteousness because of my foes; Make Your way straight before me.
Psalms‬ ‭5:8‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.5.8.NASB1995Psalm

Teach me that I may bring to remembrance when attacked for my faith, as You were Jesus.

Jesus experienced being delivered over to his adversaries; those who bore false witness of Him, those who were violent against Him. Should we expect any less for standing on the truth of God’s promises?

I cried out to You, O Lord; I said, “You are my refuge, My portion in the land of the living.
Psalms‬ ‭142:5‬ ‭NASB1995‬‬
https://bible.com/bible/100/psa.142.5.NASB1995
‭‭
🌹For You have rescued my soul from death, My eyes from tears, My feet from stumbling. I shall walk before the Lord In the land of the living.
