The Lord is Our 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 Deeper Still's 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.  Thank you Lord that You protect the team members of Deeper Still and surround them as a battlement.   In Jesus' Name, Amen.  

"The Lord God is a sun and shield."   The word "sun" in the original Hebrew is shemesh and it can mean brilliant, shining, or battlement. 

Battlement?  

A battlement is the top part of a castle.  They were used as protective agents during attack.   On towers or building tops, the flat roof is used as the protected fighting platform. 

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

In one week, the Deeper Still team will join together to fight the forces of darkness on behalf of the 10 participants coming for the summer retreat.  

Thank you for joining us in prayer in fighting the battle to regain the ground from the enemy in each of these ladies' lives. 

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.
