God's Protection
"Surely He shall deliver
you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday."
Psalm 91:3-6
"Stand, therefore, having
girdled your waist with truth, having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and having
shod your feet with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield
of faith with which you will be able to quench the fiery darts of the wicked one. And take
the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the Word of God; praying
always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, being watchful to this end with all
perseverence and supplication for the saints-- and for me, that utterance may be given to
me, that I may open my mouth boldly to make known the mystery of the gospel, for which I
am an ambassador in chains; that in it I may speak boldly, as I ought to speak."
Ephesians 6:14-20
"Let your conduct be
without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He himself has said,
"I will never leave you nor forsake you." So we may boldy say:
'The Lord is my Helper;
I will not fear.
What can man do to me?'
Hebrews 13:5-6
