Psalm 3, The Lord, Our Shield

A Psalm of David

“Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! Many are they that rise up against me. Many there be which say of my soul, There is no help for him in God. Selah.

“But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head. I cried unto the Lord with my voice, and he heard me out of his holy hill. Selah.

“I laid me down and slept; I awaked; for the Lord sustained me. I will not be afraid of ten thousands of people, that have set themselves against me round about.

“Arise, O Lord; save me, O my God: for thou hast smitten all mine enemies upon the cheek bone; thou hast broken the teeth of the ungodly. Salvation belongeth unto the Lord: thy blessing is upon thy people. Selah.” (Psalm 3, KJV)

The devil wickedly causes his destructions, working through those who don’t heed God’s instructions…

Many, who are in situations these days beyond comprehension, need our fervent prayers for God’s intervention. “For the Lord knows the way of the righteous” (words to cherish); but the way of the wicked will perish.”  (Psalm 1:6 NASB)

P. A. Oltrogge

Father, we pray that many in Israel, Iran, and all countries worldwide will find Your Son, Jesus, as their Savior and their Shield…thank You that many have. Protect the innocent in the midst of the destructions from war. Heal the wounded and comfort those who’ve lost loved ones. Assist those who are working to bring aid to the many people affected, who, according to reports, are simply unable to go to school or work. Give Your wisdom and direction to those leaders who are working on the side of good. We ask this in Jesus’ name… Amen
