My God, Thank You For Shielding Me
March 10 Scripture Meditations Based on 2Samuel 22-24
Key Verse – 2Samuel 22:3 The God of my rock; in him will I trust: he is my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my high tower, and my refuge, my saviour; thou savest me from violence.
MY GOD, THANK YOU FOR SHIELDING ME
Thank You for shielding me from enemies
With Your hands of deliverance and security promise
So shall I be settled against adversaries’ dummies
In calling on You by faith according to Your truth’s premise.
Thank You for shielding me from violence
With Your peace as my fortress of serenity’s excellence
So shall I be quieted against harassments’ prevalence
In abiding in You inside Your gentle silence around Your kindness’ opulence.
Thank You for shielding me from sin-corruption
With Your forgiveness full of compassion
So shall I be pardoned to delight in the joy of Your salvation
In trusting You along Your assured redemption and restoration.
Thank You for shielding me from sorrows
With Your comforting refuge for my todays and tomorrows
So shall I be pacified against guilt harrows
In confessing to You my iniquities, trying to hide from rebuke-arrows.
Thank You for shielding me from backsliding-snares
With Your protection, preventing my distress midst trembling scares
So shall I be preserved against shame of afflicting stares
In crying unto You for Your mercy that truly cares.
Thank You for shielding me from calamity
With Your girding strength subduing my vanity’s futility
So shall I be submissive to Your exalted glory and majesty
In worshipping You along Your supreme sovereignty.
