In Your Strength
I Can Crush An Army;
With My God I Can Scale Any Wall.

Maybe you need the encouragement of Psalm 18 this morning? Maybe “I can’t” needs to be pushed out of our vocabulary! I love the Psalms! When I find myself down, bummed out, and/or discouraged I open up my Bible and start reading Psalms. Today I happened to read Psalm 18 just because today is May 18th! It is true that there are a lot of things that you and I cannot do, but when we yield and surrender our lives over to the God who created everything then anything and everything is possible! We need to let “I can’t” die and we need to let “with God’s help, I can” thrive!

Scripture

Psalm 18

29 In your strength I can crush an army;
    with my God I can scale any wall.

Application

I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength! How about you?

Prayer

I love you, Lord; You are my strength. You are my Rock, my Fortress, and my Savior; my God You are my rock, in whom I find protection. You are my shield, the power that saves me, and my place of safety.   

I called on You Lord, You who are worthy of praise, and You saved me from my enemies. You led me to a place of safety; You rescued me because You delight in me. LORD You have rewarded me for doing right; You restored me because of my innocence. For I have kept Your ways Oh Lord; I have not turned from You to follow evil.  

To the faithful you show yourself faithful; to those with integrity you show integrity. To the pure You show Yourself pure, but to the crooked You show Yourself shrewd. You rescue the humble, but You humiliate the proud.  

You light a lamp for me. LORD, my God, You light up my darkness. In your strength I can crush an army; with You my God I can scale any wall. Your way is perfect. All of Your promises prove true. You are a shield for all who look to him for protection. Who is God except the Lord? Who but our God is a solid rock? Taken from Psalm 18 (Personalized)
