Psalm 60:11-12 NLT Oh, please help us against our enemies, for all human help is useless. With God’s help we will do mighty things, for he will trample down our foes.
God knows we’ll face some battles in our lives and we don’t need to put our boxing gloves on, but we do need our armour on!😊 David too was yet again facing so many enemies on all sides but in verse 4 he says But you have raised a banner for those who fear you - a rallying point in the face of attack.
Yesterday we looked at sitting at Jesus feet to hear all He has to say to us, laying aside the things that demand our attention in order to hear His plan for our day. David seems to have learned the same lesson because he knows where to go to when he’s under pressure on all sides.
We too have a rallying point in the face of any attack we may be experiencing. It’s in the presence of God, at His throne of grace where we’ll find all the help we’ll need. It’s where we’ll hear the victory cry of Jesus over everything that tries to bring us down.
It’s where we’ll be reminded that it’s God who will trample down our foes and enable us all to do mighty things for Him. It’s not that God doesn’t want us doing other things, but He does want us to spend time with Him first, so we do the right things at the right time in the right place, which is what we all would want anyway.😊
Be encouraged today, God is in the business of trampling down anything that has risen up against us, whether it’s sickness, fatigue, financial challenges or family upsets. As long as we’re spending time with the Lord, receiving His strategy, His instructions, we will do mighty things for Him. In Jesus name. Amen.
Indeed, in Jesus name Amen!
