“Lord, how are they increased that trouble me! many are they that rise up against me. Many there be which say of my soul, there is no help for him in God. Selah. But thou, O Lord, art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.” Psalm 3:1–3 KJV

The Word of God is full of light and life. It gives us illumination and directs us in the path of righteousness. Through the Word of God, we can appreciate the fact that when our challenges begin to increase or become intense, it is a sign that the time for lifting up is near. The psalmist found himself in a situation where his enemies had increased, and they boldly declared that there was no help for him. At that very moment, God shielded him and lifted him out of all his troubles.

Dear beloved, have you found yourself in a similar situation where your challenges seem to overwhelm you? It is time for your lifting up (Psalm 102:13). God will lift you up and put your enemies to shame. We are always on the winning side. Hallelujah! Glory to God!

Prayer Point: Thank you, Father, for putting my enemies to shame, amen.
