Delivered from Deception

Read:  Psalm 120 / Proverbs 6 / Job 42 /Mark 9 

 

Psalm 120:2 ~ Deliver my soul, O LORD, from lying lips, and from a deceitful tongue.

Proverbs 6:5 ~ Deliver thyself as a roe from the hand of the hunter, and as a bird from the hand of the fowler.

Job 42:10 ~ And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends.

Mark 9:7 ~ A cloud that overshadowed them: and a voice came out of the cloud, saying, This is my beloved Son: hear him.

 

Though lying lips are everywhere,

We are delivered by God’s Word.

We thus escape deception’s snare

As does the liberated bird.

 

We are delivered when we pray

As in God’s presence we rejoice.

The Lord will guard us every day

And guide us as we heed His voice.
