“ Summon your power, O God, the power, O God, by which you have worked for us.”
“ For you are my rock and my fortress; and for your name’s sake you lead me and guide me;”
“For he will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways. On their hands they will bear you up, lest you strike your foot against a stone.”
Psalms 71:1 In you, O LORD, do I take refuge; let me never be put to shame! In your righteousness deliver me and rescue me; incline your ear to me, and save me! Be to me a rock of refuge, to which I may continually come; you have given the command to save me, for you are my rock and my fortress. Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel man.
Proverbs 18:10 The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe.
Isaiah 33:16 he will dwell on the heights; his place of defense will be the fortresses of rocks; his bread will be given him; his water will be sure.
Psalms 91:1 He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.”
I read a review of this Psalm and share it with you. Let us ask for help, that we may disappoint the calculations of those who hate us, whether men or demons. It is a piteous spectacle when apparently prosperous careers” are overclouded, and age is overwhelmed in catastrophes which there is no time to overcome. But such is not God’s way with His loyal servants. His rivers do not end in swamps and marshes, but broaden and deepen till they kiss the mighty ocean. It is good for us to keep God our rock, refuge, power and might in both good times and times of trials allowing His perfect will, purpose and plan for our lives.
