Psalm 18:32
It is God that girdeth me with strength, and maketh my way perfect.
God created us to be His warriors. Do you remember as a child singing "I'm in the Lord's Army"? That is just as true today as it was when we were younger, maybe even more so. In this verse we see how God prepares us for the battles we face every day.
The men of the Old Testament wore long flowing robes and had to tie them up or gird them up to be able to move quickly. God himself girds us or prepares us for battle. And what He girds us with is His strength, the ability to face the battles ahead. As we saw earlier, perfect means complete. So His strength makes us complete. It is so good to know that when we are faced with the day to day battles of Christian life that God will provide all we need.
Today as you go through your day, remind yourself that God will help you by girding you up with His strength.
