There are times that God tests our faith. We need to let God shield our hearts, protect us and not be afraid. Psalms 27:1-14 NLT The L ord is my light and my salvation— so why should I be afraid? The L ord is my fortress, protecting me from danger, so why should I tremble? When evil people come to devour me, when my enemies and foes attack me, they will stumble and fall. Though a mighty army surrounds me, my heart will not be afraid. Even if I am attacked, I will remain confident. The one thing I ask of the L ord — the thing I seek most— is to live in the house of the L ord all the days of my life, delighting in the L ord ’s perfections and meditating in his Temple. For he will conceal me there when troubles come; he will hide me in his sanctuary. He will place me out of reach on a high rock. Then I will hold my head high above my enemies who surround me. At his sanctuary I will offer sacrifices with shouts of joy, singing and praising the L ord with music. Hear me as I pray, O L ord . Be merciful and answer me! My heart has heard you say, “Come and talk with me.” And my heart responds, “L ord , I am coming.” Do not turn your back on me. Do not reject your servant in anger. You have always been my helper. Don’t leave me now; don’t abandon me, O God of my salvation! Even if my father and mother abandon me, the L ord will hold me close. Teach me how to live, O L ord . Lead me along the right path, for my enemies are waiting for me. Do not let me fall into their hands. For they accuse me of things I’ve never done; with every breath they threaten me with violence. Yet I am confident I will see the L ord ’s goodness while I am here in the land of the living. Wait patiently for the L ord . Be brave and courageous. Yes, wait patiently for the L ord .
