But thou, O Lord art a shield for me; my glory, and the lifter up of mine head.

Psalm 33:3

But let all those that put their trust in thee rejoice; let them ever shout for joy, because thou defendest them: let them also that love thy name be joyful in thee. For thou, Lord, wilt bless the righteous; with favour wilt thou compass him as with a shield.

Psalm 5: 11, 12 (KJV)

The reality, joy, and privilege

of having Jesus Christ gloriously

dwelling within our hearts

is worth more than all the

treasures and pleasures of

this groaning, sin-filled world.

For Jesus Christ alone is

our shield, our glory, our

divine, holy, and precious

lifter up of our hearts, souls,

minds, and lives. For Jesus Christ

alone is our boast, crown, jewel,

honor, pride, hope of all hopes,

our shield, our glory, our praise,

our beloved, Holy, fierce defender

and the lifter up of our heads!

Therefore beloved brothers

and sisters in Jesus Christ,

we can always triumphantly

rejoice and have lavish hope

for Jesus Christ alone is

our earthly and eternal

treasure of all treasures!

Therefore rejoice and

revel in this mighty, majestic,

magnificent, and miraculous

Biblical truth, “But thou O Lord,

art a shield for me; my glory,

and the lifter up of mine head!

Amen, Amen, Amen, and Amen!
