You Are My Shield My Glory And The Lifter of My Head

 But You, O Lord, are a shield for me, My glory and the One who lifts up my head - Psalm 3:3.

My shield

         God is our shield. My shield is God Most High, who saves the upright in heart - Psalm 7:10. You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word - Psalm 119:114. He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him - Proverbs 30:5.

My glory 

       God who gives us glory is our only glory and nothing in this world. The sun shall no longer be your light by day, Nor for brightness shall the moon give light to you; But the Lord will be to you an everlasting light, And your God your glory - Isaiah 60:19. Let God alone be our glory.

The one who lifts up my head

       God is the lifter of our head. Humble yourselves, therefore, under God’s mighty hand, that he may lift you up in due time - 1 Peter 5:6. And now my head shall be lifted up above my enemies all around me; Therefore I will offer sacrifices of joy in His tabernacle; I will sing, yes, I will sing praises to the Lord - Psalm 27:6. 

                                                           

PRAYER: Dear Lord, You are our shield, glory and the one who lifts up our head. We thank You and praise You. In Jesus’ name we pray. Amen.
