Read Psalm 18.
In verse 29 the Psalmist, thinking of some of the times in the past when he has been given power to overcome difficulties and to advance on the path, says, For by thee I have run through a troop; and by my God have I leaped over a wall. Everyone has found himself at some time confronted with a difficulty that seemed like a high and insurmountable wall, but faith in God enables one to clear the obstacle notwithstanding.
Next the Psalmist reminds us that the way of God is perfect. God will put you upon your high place. In other words, he will raise you consciousness so that you will automatically demonstrate. Then the author praises God and thanks Him for His goodness. Thanksgiving, as you know, is one of he most powerful forms of prayer.
Finally he says that God gives great deliverance to his King; and that He sheweth mercy to His anointed, to David and to his seed forevermore. God intends us all to be kings through the exercise of spiritual power, and our power to go on increasing – like the seed of David – through all eternity.
In this week of thanksgiving it is important to count all your blessings and gifts from God. We should also realize that all our blessings flow from Him and that our deliverance from problems also comes from him. The power to overcome obstacles and to prevail against things that would harm us comes from God. Neither our intelligence, perseverance or strength will be enough. Faith in God will open to us infinite power, grace and protection. First put your trust in him, then do as He commanded to ensure your best good. And in all things be thankful.
With gratitude,
