Be Thou My Vision – Verse 3:
Be Thou my breastplate, my sword for the fight;
Be Thou my whole armour, be Thou my true might;
Be Thou my soul’s shelter, be Thou my strong tower:
O raise Thou me heavenward, great Power of my power.
When Joshua took over the leadership of the Hebrews from Moses, amongst Moses parting words and charge to him were the following:
6 Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.’
Deuteromy 31:6 NIVUK
Jesus says the same to us – when we go out in his name, he goes with us:
19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptising them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.’
Matthew 28:19-20
Thank you Father that you’re looking after me as I serve you today.
