The Lord is a Sun and Shield

Hear my prayer, Lord God Almighty;listen to me, God of Jacob.

Look on our shield, O God;look with favor on your anointed one.

Better is one day in your courtsthan a thousand elsewhere;I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my Godthan dwell in the tents of the wicked.

For the Lord God is a sun and shield;the Lord bestows favor and honor;no good thing does he withholdfrom those whose walk is blameless.

Lord Almighty,blessed is the one who trusts in you.

Psalm 84

You know what this means? We’d rather be in court WITH God than anywhere else on earth without Him. So if that’s where we have to be to meet with Him, then we go. There’s no where else I’d rather be than wherever Jesus is waiting for me. Better is one day in your court than a thousand elsewhere.

Do not be afraid. The Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
