Main Thought:
God is in control above all nations and above our enemies. We trust in His salvation because without Him we can do nothing.
Psalm 108:7-13
God has promised in his holiness:
“With exultation I will divide up Shechem
and portion out the Valley of Succoth.
Gilead is mine; Manasseh is mine;
Ephraim is my helmet,
Judah my scepter.
Moab is my washbasin;
upon Edom I cast my shoe;
over Philistia I shout in triumph.”
Who will bring me to the fortified city?
Who will lead me to Edom?
Have you not rejected us, O God?
You do not go out, O God, with our armies.
Oh grant us help against the foe,
for vain is the salvation of man!
With God we shall do valiantly;
it is he who will tread down our foes.
Prayer
You, Lord Jesus, we worship as our King: to You we have vowed allegiance, and under You do we desire to live. So govern us by Your Spirit that we always remain citizens in Your kingdom of grace, and when our earthly pilgrimage is ended, receive us into Your kingdom of glory, that with all the hosts of heaven we may forever magnify Your holy name. Amen.
