But thou, O Lord , art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.
Psalms 3:3 KJV

Commentary:
If you are a believer out there, you must know that the Bible says that you have an adversary, the devil, who is relentlessly at work against you and any progress you wish to make in your godliness and labour of Love. His purpose is to destroy, still, kill anything good in your life.
However, there is a flip side of that coin... and it is that you have a loyal Partner, Friend and Family in the person of God, Author of Life and Creator of all things.
He is and will always be for you because His love for you is infinite.
This is the best news ever because your enemy the devil in all his might is no match to GOD.
So our verse for today acknowledges the presence of this real enemy but in the midst of that realisation it elevates our spirits to understand that God is equally present and he is our shield and defender against the enemy and anything he can throw against us.
We are safe and secure... we are more than conquerors and we can walk with our heads up high.
Amen!
Heavenly loving father, thank you for being my shield.
