Triumphant Song of Confidence
The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life, of whom shall I be afraid?
When evildoers assail me–my adversaries and foes, they shall stumble and fall.
Though an army encamp against me, my heart shall not fear. Though war rise up against me, yet I will be confident.
One thing I asked of the Lord, that I will seek after, to live in the house of the Lord, all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord and to inquire in His Temple.
For He will hide me in His shelter in the day of trouble, He will conceal me under the cover of His tent, He will set me high on a rock.
Now my head is lifted up above my enemies all around me and I will offer in His tent, sacrifices with shouts of joy. I will sing and make melody to the Lord.
Hear O Lord when I cry aloud, be gracious to me and answer me. ‘Come’ my heart says, ‘seek His face.’ Your face Lord, do I seek. Do not hide Your face from me.
Do not turn away Your servant in anger, You have been my help. Do not cast me off, do not forsake me, the Lord will take me up.
Teach me Your way O Lord and lead me on a level path because of my enemies. Do not give me up to the will of my adversaries, for false witnesses have risen against me and they are breathing out violence.
I believe that I shall see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord, be strong and let your heart take courage. Wait for the Lord. –Psalm 27

Love For Enemies
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy’ but I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be the children of your Father in heaven. For He makes His sun rise on the evil and on the good and sends rain on the righteous and unrighteous. For if you love those who love you what reward do you have? Do not even the tax collectors do the same? If you greet only your brothers and sisters, what more are you doing than others? — Be perfect therefore as your heavenly Father is perfect.” –Matthew 5:43-48
Cast away from you all the transgressions that you have committed against Me and get yourselves a new heart and a new spirit.
