My God, Thank You For Defending Me

April 28 Scripture Meditations Based on Psalms 5-8

Key Verse – Psalm 5:11 But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice: let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee.

MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR DEFENDING ME Thank You for defending me as You consider my meditation By giving ear to my words of supplication Truly hearkening unto the voice of my cry and lamentation Indeed hearing me and my prayers’ intention. Thank You for defending me as You direct my choices By guiding me to look up against curses Truly bringing me to Your pleasure that blesses Indeed pulling me away from wicked places. Thank You for defending me as You drive my faithfulness By propelling me to come into Your righteousness Truly guiding me through Your counsels’ truthfulness Indeed compassing me with Your favor’s pleasantness. Thank You for defending me as You heal my sin-ailment By forgiving me with Your mercy’s fulfillment Truly rebuking me not in Your anger’s sentiment Indeed delivering me from spoiling with Your loving chastisement. Thank You for defending me as You pardon my iniquity By cleansing me of my transgressions’ infirmity Truly sanctifying me from evil’s enmity Indeed purifying me with Your holiness’ purity. Thank You for defending me as You visit my stewardship By attending to me through Your sovereign partnership Truly communing with me around Your fellowship Indeed helping me to serve You well by Your leadership.
