                         Mighty Salvation
Psalm 62:7
In God is my salvation and my glory;
The Rock of my strength, and my refuge,
    is in God.  (NKJ)

     Much like David the giant killer, who wrote this psalm while he was being hunted down to by King Saul, we too have enemies who are hunting us down; enemies we can see and many that we cannot see.  Some are looking for the opportunity to take what they can from us, while others want the life of our eternal souls. There are many evil enemies who are always on the prowl searching for someone to devour and destroy.  These enemies of God are constantly looking for ways to draw us into the world of darkness and away from the protection of God’s Light. Our limited human strength is no match for Satan and his evil demons, for they are clever, strong, and very motivated to trap us in darkness of our sin.  We cannot successfully battle the ways of the Enemy without the help of our Mighty God and Savior, Jesus Christ. There is no greater Warrior than King Jesus, my friends, because He has already defeated the power of sin and the darkness of death. His sovereign powers and wisdom are no match for anyone or anything, visible or invisible.
     It is our faith in Christ Jesus, the Word of God, and the help of the Holy Spirit that we can shield ourselves from those fiery arrows of Satan that can pierce our hearts and kill our souls.  Satan and His powerful forces of evil are devouring the world and all those who belong to it, because Satan knows his time is running out.   Your time is quickly winding down, my friends, and so is the opportunity to choose God and eternal life.  There is no better time than this very moment to stop what you are doing and embrace the gift of salvation from your Savior, for it will save and preserve the precious life that God has so graciously given you. When you belong to Jesus you are safely in the hands of the Savior.
                         
                                  Whisper of Hope
I Am your Rock and Refuge…always there to protect and do battle for you.  You cannot fight alone and live, My child, for the dark forces that are at work in this world are far too powerful.  Be strong and be courageous, because this world is being ravaged by the Enemy and I need you to shine God’s Light wherever you go and whatever you do.

Ephesians 6:10-12
A final word: Be strong with the Lord’s mighty power.  Put on all of God’s
armor so that you will be able to stand firm against all strategies and tricks
of the devil.  For we are not fighting against people made of flesh and blood,
but against the evil rulers and authorities of the powers of darkness who rule
this world, and against wicked spirits in the heavenly realms.  (NLT)
                           
              Guard me as the apple of your eye.  
       Hide me in the shadow of Your wings.
                             (Psalm 18:8)
