Our Shield

Psalm 3:3 But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

David was faced with a lot of opposition, people that desire to do him wrong. He looked to God to put a shield around him and protect him from his enemies. Our enemy is the devil who walks about as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. He plants seeds of doubt in the children of God. If God really cared about you, this tragedy would not have happen? If God really loved you, He would have made better provision for you? The darts of the enemy fly from all directions accusing us of having little faith. We walk away with our heads down in defeat doubting God and everyone around us. Like David, our only hope is to put our trust in God and believe in the face of it all. He His our shield, He will come through with grace. He will cause us to lift our head heavenward and trust that He does all thing good and for His glory.
