CONFIDENCE

Proverbs 3:26

O God, You are my Confidence! You only are my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be shaken. Dear Jesus, I do confess to You, however, that I do not always live this way. Forgive me when my faith wavers, and when my eyes wander, and when my steps weaken. Cause me to remember who You are: God Almighty, Strong Creator, Lord of Hosts, King of Glory. Yes, You are my Banner, my Shepherd, my Peace, and my Defense. Remind me, O Lord, You are the great I AM who is a shield before me and a foundation underneath me. When I am wearily asking, "From where does my help come?" cause me to say with confidence, "My help comes from the Lord, who made heaven and earth." You, O God, will not allow my foot to slip ... You are my keeper who neither slumbers nor sleeps. You will protect me from all evil; You will keep my soul. Yes, You make my feet like hinds' feet, and set me upon my high places. You train my hands for battle, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze. Hear me say with renewed faith, "I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me!" Yes, You O God, are my confidence.
