Light for My Path Daily Devotion

Bible Reading

He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High will abide in the shadow of the Almighty. I will say to the Lord, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” (Psalm 91:1-2 ESV)

Hymn  ELH 251:1-2  A Mighty Fortress Is Our God

A mighty Fortress is our God,
A trusty Shield and Weapon;
Our help is He in all our need,
Our stay whate’er doth happen;
For still our ancient foe
Doth seek to work us woe;
Strong mail of craft and pow’r
He weareth in this hour;
On earth is not his equal.

Stood we alone in our own might,
Our striving would be losing;
For us the one true Man doth fight,
The Man of God’s own choosing.
Who is this chosen One?
‘Tis Jesus Christ, the Son,
The Lord of host, ’tis He
Who wins the victory
In ev’ry field of battle.

Prayer

Heavenly Father, thank you for being my rock and my fortress in this life, protecting me from all the assaults of the devil. Continue to strengthen my faith through Your Word. In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
