Our Shield

Proverbs 30:4-5 KJV
Who hath ascended up into heaven, or descended? who hath gathered the wind in his fists? who hath bound the waters in a garment? who hath established all the ends of the earth? what is his name, and what is his son's name, if thou canst tell?
Every word of God is pure: he is a shield unto them that put their trust in him.


And what a shield we have when we put our trust in Him!

He has ascended up into heaven and descended
He has gather the wind in His fists
He has bound the waters in a garment
He has established all the ends of the earth


Surely the man who is behind this shield is safe from any threat, human or otherwise.

But notice, we are given the means by which we place our trust in Him. It is through the Word of God. Man's trust in God is not something he can devise on his own. God has given us His Word to
Tell us the position man has before God
Tell us who God is and what His expectations are and
Tell us the way to be reconciled and find salvation in God
