God Is My… (Psalms), 10


~ God Is My Strength (2) ~

Introduction  ~  Previously from July 16, 2017 through January 6, 2019 ALN posted a series of 60 posts of “Jesus is…,” and now we look exclusively at who “God is…” from the Book of Psalms.  While not a complete list these posts occur are in the same order they are in the Psalms. 

Passage  ~  “The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; my God, my strength, in whom I will trust; my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.  I will call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised; so shall I be saved from my enemies” (Psalm 18:2-3).     

Prior Passage(s)  ~   “I will love You, O Lord, my strength” (Psalm 18:1).     

Significance  ~  Mankind is broken and weak since the Fall in the Garden of Eden.  But those who have recognized their need for a Savior and called upon Jesus Christ to be their personal Savior have the strength of God at their disposal when they are operating in accordance to God’s desires for them. 

Comment  ~  God uses the weak things in this world to accomplish great things in this world!  Have you ever noticed that God rarely uses the strong and mighty of this world.  Perhaps this is so that it will be clear that the accomplishments are of God and not of man.
