Triumphant in Tribulation

Read:  Psalm 118 / Proverbs 24 / 2 Samuel 17 /Acts 14

Psalm 118:8 It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man.
Proverbs 24:6 For by wise counsel thou shalt make thy war: and in multitude of counselors there is safety.  
2 Samuel 17:21 They... went and told king David... Arise, and pass quickly... for thus hath Ahithophel counseled against you.
Acts 14:21-22 They returned... confirming the... disciples, and exhorting them to continue in the faith, and that we must through much tribulation enter into the kingdom of God.

Triumphant in our tribulation,
We know our Savior goes before
To lead us in the proclamation
That Christ is Lord forevermore. 

Though all of hell should now conspire
To overthrow our confidence,
We triumph in a strength much higher,
For Jesus Christ is our Defense.
