Please read Psalm 27.

Meditate on verses 1 and 3.
The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the defense of my life; whom shall I dread?
Though a host encamp against me, my heart will not fear;
though war arise against me, in spite of this, I shall be confident.
David was a warrior. In one of the wars, he killed a total
of 69,000 Arameans (Syrians) (1 Chronicles 18:5; 19:18). You might think
someone that victorious would trust in himself, yet David trusted in the LORD
and asked God not to deliver him over to the desire of his enemies.
The greatest joy in David’s life was not bragging about his
battle victories; it was being in God’s presence, praising Him (v. 6).
Examine your life. Are you afraid? Let your heart take
courage in God. Are you in despair? Believe that you will see the goodness of
the LORD. What is your greatest desire? Desire to be in God’s presence all the
days of your life.
Pray Psalm 27:7-9 and 11 over yourself and those for whom
you stand guard as a faithful, prayerful watchman (Isaiah 62:6-7).
“Hear, O LORD, when _______ and I cry with our voices,
be gracious to us and answer us.
You call us to seek Your face. O
LORD, Your face we shall seek!
Do not hide Your face from us.
We are Your servants; do not turn us away in anger.
You have been our help; do not abandon us nor forsake us, O God of our
salvation!
Teach us Your way, O LORD, and lead us in a level path because of our
foes.
In Your name, Jesus~”
