The Lord Is My Strength

 

Psalms 28:7 NIV

The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.

There are times when I feel like I am at the end of myself.  I am mentally drained and it becomes hard to focus.  I just want to go home and crawl under my covers.  I cry out to God for help and He heeds my call.  

It is when I am at my end that He begins and feel me the dunamis power.  I get supernatural strength to endure and go on.  He shields me from anxious thoughts as I trust in Him. My heart turns to Him.  I put my trust in Him and He helps me.  God never lets me down. He is a faithful God who lavishes me with His love.

Thinking on the Lord and all He has done for me.  Thinking on all that He is  and who He is causes my heart to respond.  It's like He breathes in me and I am revived.  I get my second wind.  I can face the next thing.  I am confidant because God is on my side.  He is my shield.

 There is now a song in my heart.  A song of praise for His goodness.  Praise for His mercy. Praise for His provision. God is beyond good and deserves a hallelujah praise.

Lord thank You for being my strength.  Thank You for the breath of life. Thank You for being me shield.  Thank you for focusing me and causing me to triumph where I would fail on my own.  Thank You for pouring into me.  Thank You for being my rest.  In Jesus name.  Amen
