OUR DEFENDER

“For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the LORD; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him.”

Psalms 12:5 KJV

When satan attacks us, Jesus is with us to protect us and help us.  I was able to copy and paste the Scripture verse for this devotion.  I asked Jesus to help me write devotions because I can’t read the Scripture verses.  When we are on the battlefield for Jesus, we need to realize that satan will attack us.

If you are hurting and discouraged, remember that Jesus also hurt and was discouraged when He was here on His mission so He really understands how we feel.  What breaks my heart is that even today, Jesus is hurting because people still reject Him and the unconditional love He offers them.

Heavenly Father, thank You for the privilege of serving Your Son.  I pray that You will comfort and encourage everyone who is hurting, brokenhearted and lonely.  May they feel Your peace, the peace that passes all understanding.  I love You, dear Father.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
