Lord, we thank You for Jesus – He is the Rock of our salvation. Often,
in our journey through life, we’re walking on shifting sand. As we walk
along, we discover that it’s more than shifting sand – It’s quicksand!
It’s sucking us in – and it’s dragging us down. Is there any hope for
us? Is there any solid ground? Yes! There is! Jesus is “the Solid Rock”
(“My hope is built on nothing less than Jesus’ blood and righteousness …
On Christ, the solid rock I stand, all other ground is sinking sand.”)
Lord, we thank You that You’ve not left us to fall down in our own
weakness. You’ve given us Jesus, our Saviour – We stand in His strength.
When we feel like we’re sinking, help us, Lord, to look to You, to find
new strength in You. When we’re almost overwhelmed by the flood of
unbelief that seems to be coming at us all the time, help us to come to
You and receive Your strength: “Be strong in the Lord and in the
strength of His might” (Ephesians 6:10).
By Your grace, Lord, You call us to be Your soldiers and servants. Help us not to be "fearful and fainthearted" (Deuteronomy 19:19). Help us to be "good soldiers of Jesus Christ" (2 Timothy 2:3). When we hear your challenging question: "Who is on the Lord's side?", may we give our committed answer: "By Thy call of mercy, by Thy grace divine, we are on the Lord's side; Saviour, we are Thine."
