11/7/13 Psalms 3:8 Salvation Belong to the Lord and He Puts His Blessing On You

Psalms 3:8 (NAS)

Salvation belongs to the LORD; Thy blessing be upon Thy people! Selah.

 Psalms 3:8(NIVUS)

From the LORD comes deliverance. May your blessing be on your people. <Selah>

 
Have you ever been in a battle which seemed impossible to win? Did you get discouraged and just give up?  This is not necessary since there is a way to obtain your victory.  You should turn to Jehovah the Lord God, who is your salvation, deliverance and victory. He is able to liberate you from any prison or bondage that holds you.
 
Then you will be truly blessed and given prosperity from Almighty God. He has signed a treaty of peace with you.  The Lord your God adores you and wants to exalt you. Blessing and not cursing will always be your lot, for you are His chosen child. You, therefore, should offer up thanksgiving and gratitude for the benefits that you have received. 
 
So when you are in a place of seeming defeat, pause and remember what God has promised and victory will be yours.
