THIS GOD – MY GOD
While meditating on Psalm 18 I was struck with the descriptions of God and with the verbs describing His actions. I encourage you to read the Psalm before reading my ramblings. We have a great God.

This God is – my Strength, my Rock, my Fortress, my Deliverer, my God, my Rock of Refuge, my Shield, the Horn of my Salvation, my Stronghold.
When I call to this God, He hears, He acts, He answers, He delivers, He rescues, He comforts. He supports, He light my lamp and lightens the darkness, He strengthens, He steadies, He secures, He rewards. He shows Himself merciful, blameless, pure, and shrewd. He equips He trains, He provides, He elevates and makes great, He avenges and subdues, He exalts.
This God will take care of the battles for me. He will deal with any enemy I may have or encounter. Salvation belongs to Him.
Although written by David as a song of praise after the LORD rescued Him from Saul and his enemies, it is recorded for me and for all who love God. This God who answered David's cries for help, will answer my cries for help. He delights to answer the prayers of His children. Indeed, “This God – His way is perfect; the word of the LORD proves true; He is a shield for all those who take refuge in Him. For who is God, but the LORD? And who is a rock, except our God?” (Psalm 18:30,31ESV)
