SAVIOR & PROTECTOR

PSALM 17:7 (CEV)
Show your wonderful love.
Your mighty arm protects those
who run to you
for safety
from their enemies.


1 THESSALONIANS 5:23 (CEB)
Now, may the God of peace himself cause you to be completely dedicated to him; and may your spirit, soul, and body be kept intact and blameless at our Lord Jesus Christ’s coming.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
God is our saving protector.

PRAYER
Saving Lord, criminals were crucified with you in places of honor, on your right and left hands. You are not like me. You overcome your enemies by changing them into your friends. By your Spirit, grant me such power also. Help me to see that death is nothing, and in your love all become family, through Christ our Lord. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
