Words To Live By

2 SAM 22:29-41

29For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.

30For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.

31As for God, his way is perfect; the word of the LORD is tried: he is a buckler to all them that trust in him.

32For who is God, save the LORD? and who is a rock, save our God?

33God is my strength and power: and he maketh my way perfect.

34He maketh my feet like hinds' feet: and setteth me upon my high places.

35He teacheth my hands to war; so that a bow of steel is broken by mine arms.

36Thou hast also given me the shield of thy salvation: and thy gentleness hath made me great.

37Thou hast enlarged my steps under me; so that my feet did not slip.

38I have pursued mine enemies, and destroyed them; and turned not again until I had consumed them.

39And I have consumed them, and wounded them, that they could not arise: yea, they are fallen under my feet.

40For thou hast girded me with strength to battle: them that rose up against me hast thou subdued under me.

41Thou hast also given me the necks of mine enemies, that I might destroy them that hate me.

TODAY'S PROMISE
Do not be afraid of the darkness that surrounds you. I will light your way.

WORDS TO LIVE BY

My Lord lights my way before me. He gives me His clear instruction to keep me firmly on the path of righteousness.

By Him I claim voctory over the enemy.

I run through a garrison and leap over their fortified walls.

God's Word is always before me. It is tested, tried and true.

I put my complete trust in Him.

He is my shield and my refuge!

He is my rock and my strong tower!

He supervises my way before me and reveals His plan for my life. He has set me free from all hindrances.

He makes my feet like those of a deer--firm and able--swift and graceful.

He has made me secure and capable. I maintain a steady resistance against the attacks of the enemy.

He has set me in high places and has established me with assurance and a boldness that cannot be shaken.

He trains my hands to do battle.

He has given me the shield of His salvation.

By His grace, He came down to my level so that I may be lifted up to His level.

He has enlarged my steps under me to keep me from falling.

His greatness is within me, and by His strength I destroy the enemy. I refuse to turn back until the enemy is consumed. I keep the enemy at bay and he shall not arise.

My Lord has equipped me with strength for every battle. I see nothing but the backs of my enemy as he turns tail and runs from me utterly terrified!!

I will! I am! I can! I will actualize my dream. I will press ahead. I will settle down and see it through. I will solve the problems. I will pay the price. I will never walk away from my dream until I see my dream walk away: Alert! Alive! Achieved! ~Robert Schuller
