Underlining important reminders...

Underlining important reminders...

This morning I was ready Psalm 20 and underlining words that were important to me...words like
-answer in distress
-protect
-help
-support
-remember and accept
-desire of your heart
-plans succeed
-shout for joy over victory
-grant
-trust
-rise up and stand firm

Aren't those positive words in a world of negativity?
King David was ready to to go war and this is what they prayed one time for him or may be many times....

In the New Testament, we are told to put on our armor, the Word, the Truth, our Salvation, righteousness, peace ...because we struggle with the rulers of this world ....

David could see his enemies out there on the battlefields and sometimes we can as well. But, other times the battle rages around us and we can't see it, but know that it is happening by the events taking place...I want to take up those words of David, knowing that we can stand firm in a Holy God who answers...who is trustworthy...who makes plan succeed...who is there to help and support ....

Thank YOU for your victorious words...

Psalm 20:1-9 May the Lord answer you when you are in distress; may the name of the God of Jacob protect you.
May he send you help from the sanctuary and grant you support from Zion. May he remember all your sacrifices and accept your burnt offerings.
May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed. May we shout for joy over your victory and lift up our banners in the name of our God.
May the Lord grant all your requests. Now this I know: The Lord gives victory to his anointed.
He answers him from his heavenly sanctuary with the victorious power of his right hand.
Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.
They are brought to their knees and fall, but we rise up and stand firm.
O Lord, give victory to the king! Answer us when we call!
