Psalms 18

The Lord gave me this scripture the other day and it was sooo vivid and powerful.



For the next few days I am going to go verse by verse and just talk about what this scripture says to me.



We can do nothing on our own, but with God all things are possible.



Psalm 18:28-50



 28 You, O LORD, keep my lamp burning;        my God turns my darkness into light.  29 With your help I can advance against a troop [d] ;  with my God I can scale a wall.  30 As for God, his way is perfect;   the word of the LORD is flawless.     He is a shield for all who take refuge in him.

 31 For who is God besides the LORD ?        And who is the Rock except our God?

32 It is God who arms me with strength        and makes my way perfect.

 33 He makes my feet like the feet of a deer; he enables me to stand on the heights.  

34 He trains my hands for battle; my arms can bend a bow of bronze.

 35 You give me your shield of victory,        and your right hand sustains me;  you stoop down to make me great.  

36 You broaden the path beneath me,        so that my ankles do not turn.  

37 I pursued my enemies and overtook them; I did not turn back till they were destroyed.  38 I crushed them so that they could not rise; they fell beneath my feet.  39 You armed me with strength for battle;        you made my adversaries bow at my feet.  





 43 You have delivered me from the attacks of the people;   you have made me the head of nations;   people I did not know are subject to me.  

44 As soon as they hear me, they obey me; foreigners cringe before me.

 45 They all lose heart;   they come trembling from their strongholds.  

46 The LORD lives! Praise be to my Rock!        Exalted be God my Savior!  

47 He is the God who avenges me, who subdues nations under me,  

48 who saves me from my enemies.        You exalted me above my foes; from violent men you rescued me.  

49 Therefore I will praise you among the nations, O LORD;    I will sing praises to your name.
