Psalm 18:  “I love You O Lord my strength,

the Lord is my Rock and my Fortress, my Deliverer.  

My God in whom I trust.  

My Shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.  

I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, so shall I be saved from my enemies.”

 

What do we do when we don’t know what to pray?  So many times in my life I have come to the throne with nothing.  Nothing to offer.  Nothing to give.

 

When it seems that there is no good thing within me to offer to the King of the universe….I can still give Him the best.  He has written His Word for us and we can say it back to Him in response and thanksgiving.  I have taken a liking to memorizing scripture…..and on days like today I am truly grateful.  I can simply recite the verse that He has written over my heart and take delight in Him….Memorizing scripture is an easy thing to do….simply get a notecard and write down the first letter of each word on the top, with the actual words on the bottom or the back of that card.  It goes something like this:

 

Psalm 18:1-3
“I L Y O L M S,

T L I M R A M F, M D  

M G I W I T.  

M S A T H O M S, M S.  

I W C U T L, W I W T B P, S S I B S F M E.”
“I love You O Lord my strength,

the Lord is my Rock and my Fortress, my Deliverer.  

My God in whom I trust.  

My Shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.  

I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, so shall I be saved from my enemies.”

Be blessed today…….and remember:

 

He loves you and:

He can give you strength.

He is the only one who can deliver you.

You can trust Him.

He will defend you and protect you.

You can call upon Him.

He can save you from your enemies.

 

In the Name of the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit.  Amen.
