Battlement

"For the Lord God is a sun and shield: the Lord will give grace and glory;  no good thing will He withhold from them that walk uprightly."  Psalms 84:11 

Father, we thank You that You are our sun and shield.  Father, we thank you that you give grace and glory to the Deeper Still Ministry Team and that You do not withhold any good thing.  In Jesus' Name, Amen.  

This was my son's memory verse this week and I love it!  "The Lord God is a sun and shield."   I did some research on the word "sun" and it can mean brilliant, shining, or battlement. 

Battlement?  Huh?  What does that mean?  I googled it. (Gotta love Google!) A battlement is the top part of a castle with indentions in the walls that outline the upper portion.  They were used as protective agents during attack.   On towers or building tops, the flat roof is used as the protected fighting platform.  How awesome is it that our God is our battlement as we fight for freedom?!

The Lord God shines brilliantly and surrounds us as a battlement and shield to support us and protect us especially during battle! 

Thank you for joining the Lord in surrounding us in prayer as we go to battle.

Thank you for praying this verse with us today.  Praying the same for you,  Deeper Still prayer partners.  

Thank you, Lord, for these prayer partners you have brought to support Deeper Still Ministry in prayer. Lord, I thank you that you are their sun and shield.  Thank you that you give grace and glory and withhold no good thing from them as they walk uprightly with you.   In Jesus' Name, Amen.
