Rescue

But the Lord God keeps me from being disgraced. ~ Isaiah 50:7a (CEV)

He will rescue us again. We have placed our confidence in him, and he will continue to rescue us. And you are helping us by praying for us. ~ 2 Corinthians 1:10b-11a (NLT)
Lord,

THANKS: Thank you for caring enough about me to rescue me from danger and disgrace.

REGRETS: Sometimes, though, I try to rescue myself. I pretend that I have that kind of power and am smart enough to actual take on all the threats.

INTERCESSION: Rescue me from myself and my overconfidence. Send more people who will pray for me and my situation -- my needs. Recharge my hope and confidence in you. 

PURPOSE: My hope is in Christ Jesus alone.

Amen.
