The Believer's Daily Remembrancer
"The Lord God, is a Sun and Shield" Psalms 84:11
TO Him we must look for light, comfort, and fruitfulness. He is our light and our salvation. He will not leave us comfortless. From Him is our fruit found. The people who know Him, believe Him, and walk with Him, are blessed. He giveth light in darkness, joy in sorrow, and life in death. He is our defence; from Him we must expect protection. His salvation is our shield; faith lays hold of it, and employs it against all our foes. He will enlighten and protect us; He will never fail us, or leave us to want or perish. He communicates His favours as freely, as easily, and as plentifully as the sun shines. There is enough in Him, and He will cheerfully bestow. Let us therefore wait upon Him this day, and walk in the light of His countenance. Who is among you that feareth the Lord, and obeyeth the voice of His servant, that walketh in darkness and hath no light? Let him trust in the name of the Lord, and stay upon his God. His heart is ever more towards us, His promises shall be fulfilled to us, and He will glorify every perfection of His nature in us. O the riches of grace!
Lord, be my safety and defence,
My light, my joy, my bliss;
My portion in the world to come,
My confidence in this:
Be thou, O Lord, my Shield and Sun,
As I the path of duty run.
