Wonderful Wednesday

Psalm 35(KJV)

35 Plead my cause, O Lord, with them that strive with me: fight against them that fight against me. 2 Take hold of shield and buckler, and stand up for mine help. 3 Draw out also the spear, and stop the way against them that persecute me: say unto my soul, I am thy salvation. 4 Let them be confounded and put to shame that seek after my soul: let them be turned back and brought to confusion that devise my hurt.

5 Let them be as chaff before the wind: and let the angel of the Lord chase them. 6 Let their way be dark and slippery: and let the angel of the Lord persecute them. 7 For without cause have they hid for me their net in a pit, which without cause they have digged for my soul.

This Scripture came to mind last night. I was thinking of something to write and the words Plead my cause," came to mind. This Scripture and a prayer for strength. A prayer for help and a shield against the enemy. Sometimes we forget that the battle wasn't ours to begin with, it's God's. He's already won.

This week I saw a challenge to pray for your enemy. Pray that God will take control. Pray for forgiveness over that person. I think that's a great idea. So, I challenge you to pray for someone you can't get along with or have odds against. This will help you in your daily struggles.

The Bible says that you are not going to be friends with everyone. In fact, there is a place that says for you to just walk away when you see that you can do nothing to help mend this friendship. Isn't it wonderful that God makes provisions for us?

1. What does the writer ask the Lord to do?

2. What does he ask the Lord to have chase after his enemies?

3. Why did those people cause the writer to fall in a pit?

Prayer--Lord, please make a hedge about me. Keep me from people who just can't stand me and help me to realize the difference. Please fight the enemy for me as David asked in this Psalm. Thank you for everything Lord, for in my weakness, I am made strong. In Jesus Sweet Name, Amen.

Terrific Tuesday

2 Peter 1King James Version (KJV) 1 Simon Peter, a servant and an apostle of Jesus Christ, to them that have obtained like precious faith with us through the righteousness of God and our Saviour Jesus Christ: 2 Grace and peace be multiplied unto you through the knowledge of God, and of Jesus our Lord, 3 According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue: 4 Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust. 5 And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge; 6 And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness; 7 And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity. 8 For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall n...

Thoughtful Thursday

If God Be For Us 31 What then shall we say to this? If God is for us, who is against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, will he not also give us all things with him? 33 Who shall bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God who justifies; 34 who is to condemn? Is it Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised from the dead, who is at the right hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us?[e] 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? 36 As it is written, “For thy sake we are being killed all the day long; we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.” 37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor things present, nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from...
