Psalm 5:12 For thou, LORD, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.Using the imagery of war, David reflects on God’s protection in the battles of life. The Lord surrounds us with a shield of love that protects us from enemy attack. But even when the force of the blows knock us down, leaving us with a feeling of defeat, the Lord picks us up again and gives us strength to continue. Rest in God’s protection and thank him for his shield of love around you.
