We love You, Lord, our strength, for You are our Rock and fortress---our deliverer; our God, our strength, in Whom we trust; our buckler, and the horn of our salvation, and our strong tower. We call upon You Lord, for You are worthy to be praised: so shall we be saved from our enemies. For You, our God live; and blessed are You, our Rock; and may You, the God of our salvation be exalted now and forever.
Father, we hear of wars and rumors of wars. We hear daily of those who want to slay us because we confess You as our Lord. We know that You are our strength in this time of trouble. You hide is in the shelter of Your wings until these calamities pass by. We dwell in the secret place of our Most High God and we abide in Your shadows.
Lord, may our military men and women choose to accept the One and only Savior, Jesus Christ. Though they gain the whole world, they shall surely lose their souls if they do not repent and follow You. Lord, this world will profit us nothing, but in You alone is fullness of joy. Help these precious servants to seek You, find You, accept You, love You, follow You, and serve You.
Father, may Israel be blessed and protected from all those who seek their destruction. We know that You save Your anointed. May all Israel hear You from Your holy heaven with the saving strength of Your right hand. For You will help them and deliver them; You will deliver them from the wicked and save them, because they trust in You.
Father, we trust in You and praise You, for You are the health of our countenance and our God. O send out Your light and Your truth and let them lead us this day and through eternity. Blessed is the Name of the Lord, the Most High God. In the Name of Jesus Christ, Amen.

Read: 1 John 3:16-23
When Deng Jinjie saw people struggling in the water of the Sunshui River in the Hunan province of China, he didnt just walk by. In an act of heroism, he jumped into the water and helped save four members of a family. Unfortunately, the family left the area while he was still in the water. Sadly, Jinjie, exhausted from his rescue efforts, was overwhelmed and swept away by the river current and drowned.
When we were drowning in our sin, Jesus Christ gave His life to come to our aid. We were the ones He came to rescue. He came down from heaven above and pulled us to safety. He did this by taking the punishment for all of our wrongdoing as He died on the cross (1 Peter 2:24) and 3 days later was resurrected. The Bible says, By this we know love, because [Jesus] laid down His life for us (1 John 3:16). Jesus sacrificial love for us now inspires us to show genuine love in deed and in truth (v.18) to others with whom we have relationships.
If we overlook Jesus ultimate sacrifice on our behalf, well fail to see and experience His love. Today, consider the connection between His sacrifice and His love for you. He has come for your rescue.
