“The Lord is my strength and my shield; in him my heart trusts, and I am helped; my heart exults, and with my song I give thanks to him.” Psalm 28:7 - (ESV)
We each have times in our days and days in our lives that we need strength beyond our own. We also need protection and we find these in God our Father. These words written by David long ago can also be our testimony as followers of Jesus today because we have believed in Him as our Savior and Lord. Our Lord God is our source of strength and we have a promise elsewhere that he will provide all we need. When we turn to Him for the help we need to live for Him, He responds with strength and protection from evil. He is our shield against all the attacks from Satan and from the influences and temptations the godless world around throws at us. We believe and trust Jesus with all our hearts and as help is manifested, our hearts are filled with joy – we exult in praise. And as David wrote, we give thanks to God with our voice and song. These promises can go a long way to bolstering our spirit in any threatening circumstance.
