Feeling Attacked? (Psalm 7:8-11)

Today’s scripture: Psalm 7:8-11

Do you have days when it seems like everyone and everything is pummeling you with offensive weapons from all sides?

A snide remark from a friend feels like a stinging dart. A careless word from a spouse is a dagger’s pierce. A doctor’s devastating report cuts sword-sharp.

Attacks. Ambushes. Assaults.

It’s on those days we need to remember that God is our shield. He protects us from the “slings and arrows” that could so easily fell us. He surrounds us with a hedge of protection.

Yes, sometimes, a dart may sneak through or a dagger may press, but He will keep us from falling, from complete destruction.

If today’s an attack, stand behind the Shield—God Himself.
