Day 119 (Through the Bible in a year readings for today: 2 Samuel 21,22; Luke 22:1-30)
THE SOLID ROCK
“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence. I call upon the Lord, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.” (2 Samuel 22:2-4 ESV)
God had protected David from a jealous Saul. David’s response is to break into a song of praise in which he describes God as his rock, his fortress and his deliverer.
We can sing the same song because God has delivered us from our enemies of sin, death and the devil. Jesus is our rock, our fortress and our deliverer.
My hope is build on nothing less Than Jesus blood and righteousness.
No merit of my own I claim But wholly lean on Jesus' name.
On Christ the solid Rock I stand; All other ground is sinking sand.
(Lutheran Service Book, #575 stanza 2)
Thank You, Lord Jesus, for saving me and protecting me. I praise You and thank You for being the solid Rock of my life. Amen.
