Today's Meditation - Psalms
Psalm 119:113-120
The letter samech begins each verse in this portion. The words “hiding place” in verse 114 remind us of many passages in the psalms. Proverbs as well tells us of the refuge we find in the Lord – such as 14:26: “In the fear of the LORD is strong confidence: and His children shall have a place of refuge.” There is safety and protection in the Lord’s “hiding place.” He is our “Shield” and defence against all the fiery darts of the enemy.
Verse for Meditation: Verse 114 – “Thou art my Hiding Place and my Shield: I hope in Thy word.”
