Day 87: Psalm 35:9 And my soul shall be joyful in the LORD; It shall rejoice in His salvation. 10All my bones shall say, “LORD, who is like You, Delivering the poor from him who is too strong for him, Yes, the poor and the needy from him who plunders him?”
Almighty God and Savior, Redeemer, Conqueror, and resurrected Lord, I do rejoice in You and in Your great salvation of my soul and of my life.
Lord, I look back on my life and see the deliverance of my soul from evil, from wicked and evil men who sought to destroy me and tell lies and twist my words. As You only allowed Your holy and perfect will for Your Son, including His trial, death, and resurrection, so You only allow in my life the trials that You ordain for Your glory and for my good as Your child. Again and again I have seen Your protection from those who were too strong for me. Lord, You have been my protection and my life. You have gone before me and provided for all my needs. You have delivered me and my family again and again.
In the Lord Jesus, I see Your deliverance through trials and temptations. The Lord Jesus Christ underwent every temptation we have had, yet without sin. His victory over sin is our victory over sin.
I am weak, but Thou art strong, Jesus keep me from all wrong. I’ll be satisfied as long as I walk, let me walk, close to Thee.
Even King David acknowledged that there were people who were too strong for him to handle (II Samuel 3:39). They were too harsh, even though he was the king of the land. There are times when people and situations in life are too difficult for us, but nothing is too difficult for You, O Lord (Jeremiah 32:17).
I thank and praise You, O Christ, my Redeemer, and King!
