"Oh, praise the Lord,
for He has listened to my pleading.
He is my strength,
my shield from every danger.
I trust in Him,
and He helped me.
Joy rises in my heart,
until I burst out in songs of praise to Him."

~ Psalm 28:6 & 7 LAB

Bible Commentary: "In the sports world there is a phrase, 'A good offense is the best defense.' In the spiritual battle around us, God is our strength and shield. He is our defense against all that would harm us. If we trust in Him, he will certainly defend  us from the vicious attacks of our enemies."
