The Lord is My Light & My Salvation
by Kevin Litchfield
As I have considered what to share this week, I was reminded that
the battle you I face is real.
There is an enemy that is not flesh and blood that strategizes against
us. An enemy that knows our weaknesses, our sin struggles, our
physical limitations, our fears, our anger, our… you fill in the blank.
In the midst of life’s chaos hold tight to Psalm 27:13-14a: “I would
have despaired unless I had BELIEVED that I WOULD SEE the
goodness of the LORD in the land of the living.”
WAIT on the LORD… verse on echoes this hope: The Lord is my LIGHT
and my SALVATION so WHY should I be AFRAID.
Let us pray for one another that we can remember this truth.
The Lord is my light and my salvation—
so why should I be afraid?
The Lord is my fortress, protecting me from danger,
so why should I tremble?
(Psalm 27:1)
