"But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head."
I feel this so much. I have so many thoughts close to my heart. My head has been lifted up in so many ways, even to see the errors of my ways. What a shield and protection that even is to me.
I am reminded of scripture I was speaking with a friend earlier today about. How it fits what we are seeing around us. The Lord is not just my shield but my armour also.
"Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all to stand.
Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness;
And your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:"
(Ephesians 6:11-17)
Day 1056
