Save me, O God, by Your name, And vindicate me by Your strength. Psalm 54 NKJV
David complains about his enemies. God delivered David from them. The psalms are full of David’s complaints about enemies. He had a lot of them. The psalms also give many examples of David praising God for answered prayer. I cry out to God a lot about my enemies. Not so much human enemies but unseen ones. I pray many of the same prayers again and again. When David asked God to save him he was not always crying out on his own behalf. When he speaks of his enemies they are often the enemies of his people. They are also God’s enemies. I cry out to God on behalf of my children who are in bondage to sin. It started out as rebellion. The trap was set. Sin took hold. The freedom flesh cried out for was surrendered. Hearts have been broken. Lives have been shattered. I cry out to God for my wife who suffers from illness. I have never seen anyone suffer so much for as long as she has. At times her pain is overwhelming. David knew the Children of Israel were chosen to carry God’s name. The Lord set His mark upon them. They were His possession. He was their inheritance. God promised to bless and protect them. There is power in God’s name. God always keeps His promises! David knew God would save His people. The Lord created Israel to glorify His Name. David knew the strength of God was His vindication and assurance. David knew God is more powerful than his enemies. Jesus has chosen us to be called by His Name. Born again followers of Jesus have been sealed with a promise. The Lord set His mark on us. We belong to Him. We will receive an eternal inheritance that we be all God promises to people who love and obey Him. Jesus promises to bless and protect us. Jesus always keeps His promises! Carry the Name of Jesus boldly and proudly everywhere you go. There is power in the Name of Jesus to separate darkness from light and sinners from servants. There is power to heal in the Name of Jesus. Everyone who calls on the Name of Jesus will be lifted-up into newness of life! Call out to God for deliverance from your enemies. Jesus is your vindication and assurance of deliverance from bondage. Praise God for the answered prayers yet to be revealed. Praise Jesus for deliverance from the circumstances and trials in your life! www.joyfor2day.com www.facebook.com/Joyfor2dayDailyDevotional https://twitter.com/JoyFor2day #Joyfor2daydailydevotional
