Trust That the LORD Will Deliver Us From Our Enemies!

From Today’s Liturgy of the Hours-“Lauds” (Morning)—Ps. 143:9 reminds us how the LORD God is WHO can and WILL be our Deliverer of our enemies, IF we put our trust in Him.

For those who believe, He IS our Refuge and Who saves us from our enemies.

Even though we may go through terrible tribulations here while living out our daily lives, the LORD God One Day through His Son, the Lord Jesus Christ, will make His enemies—both human and spiritual—His “footstool” (Ps. 110:1).

He will triumph over all evil (Col. 2:15) at the End of Days (Rev. 17:14).

We may not see it happen as quickly as we would like, BUT the LORD WILL AVENGE (Deut. 32:35; Rom. 12:19) at the appointed Time.

So do not be discouraged, beloved; the LORD God Most High sees and hears and knows ALL that is going on. He does not shut His eyes for one SECOND.

Isaiah 1:24 states, “Therefore the LORD declares, the LORD of Hosts (Adonai Tseva’ot), the Mighty One of ISRAEL: “Ah, I will get relief from My enemies and AVENGE Myself on My foes.”

For now, until That Day comes, let us pray and act out in faith, hope, and trust in what vv. 10-12 says-
“Teach me to do Your will, for YOU are my God! Let Your good SPIRIT lead me (Jn. 16:13; 14:26; 15:26) on level ground! For Your Name’s sake, O LORD, preserve my life! In Your righteousness bring my soul out of trouble! And in Your steadfast love You will CUT OFF my enemies, and You will DESTROY all the adversaries of my soul, for I am Your servant.”
