He is my Shield

But you, O Lord, are a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

Psalm 3:3

A shield is used as defensive armor; something or someone that protects or defend. According to Psalm 3:3, The Lord is our shield, our mighty defender on all sides. Take a moment to think about that and imagine what that would look like. Anything that we could ever face in life is no match for God. That doesn’t mean we lives will be void of experiencing trials or hardship. However, as we go through, he is shielding our heart and mind with his word. Our faith in him becomes our spiritual shield against every fiery dart of our adversary.

He is also our Glory and the lifter of our heads. We serve a God that will pick us up when we are down. As we receive the word of God into our hearts, our souls become uplifted and we are encouraged. When God lifts your head, he is reminding you of who you are and who’s you are. When our hearts become overwhelmed and we feel like our situation is just too big for us to handle. Know that God will give us the strength to tackle every mountain. Don’t hang your head in defeat. Remember, God is your protector and he is for you! He has given you power and authority to speak to your mountains.

God is my Shield

Read: Psalms 28 AMP

Scripture verses highlighted 7-9

7 My heart trusts [with unwavering confidence] in Him, and I am helped; Therefore my heart greatly rejoices, And with my song I shall thank Him and praise Him. 8 The Lord is their [unyielding] strength, And He is the fortress of salvation to His anointed. 9 Save your people and bless your inheritance; be their shepherd also, and carry them forever.

God is our strength, shield, and fortress! Take a moment to digest that fact and imagine what that would look like in the midst of what you are battling with right now. Do you have that picture in mind? Good. God wants you to see him as your Great Protector, Pillar of Strength, and Mighty Fortress. God’s protection is described in this psalm as an impenetrable shield. Nothing is getting past God’s protection! He is our place of retreat and refuge when things get overwhelming. When our hearts are filled with anxiety, fear, hurt, or pain he wants us to know that we are protected by his grace, love, and mercy.

Through it all, we can still rejoice because we know where our help and strength comes from. Our hearts are made glad when we think of how good God is and all that he has brought us through before. His track record speaks for itself, in your darkest moment he was there and sheltered you with is love and peace. Nothing has changed, he will do it again.

I challenge you to lean on him for strength, trust him for protection and he will keep you according to His divine will. Let the song of your heart today be one of assurance! He did not bring you this far to leave you now. He cares for you more than we will ever know or fathom. You don’t have to walk this journey in your own strength. Remember he is your strength if you let him, your fortress when you need a place to retreat and your shield in the fight. He can be all of that for you just give him a try.
