But let all who take refuge in you be glad; let them ever sing for joy.
Spread your protection over them,
that those who love your name may rejoice in you. For surely, O LORD, you bless the righteous; you surround them with your favor as with a shield.
Psalm 5:11-12
I love you, O LORD, my strength.
The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge. He is my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold. I call to the LORD, who is worthy of praise, and I am saved from my enemies. Psalm 18:1-3
God is our refuge and strength,
an ever-present help in trouble.
Therefore we will not fear, though the earth give way and the mountains fall into the heart of the sea, though its waters roar and foam and the mountains quake with their surging.
Psalm 46:1-3

"But You, O LORD, are a shield about me, my glory, and the One who lifts my head." Psalm 3:3
A history lesson from David, a king in whom God delighted, that benefits us all!
It is easy to forget it is our Father that always protects us against the evil one instead of by our own efforts. Our ego and pride can easily get in the way of trusting Him in all we do. It's easy to trust in our own strength when we have victories, as did David; we trust in our own insights into Him. There is temptation to stop being truly humble, pull our heads down and follow our own instincts. Yet, David says we must continue to let our Father lift our heads to Him to see what He would have us do! David demonstrates it in his own life and records it in his writings.
In Psalms 3, 4 and 5 David talks about relying on the LORD. He says his foes believed he would not be saved by his reliance upon God. It becomes easy to rely upon ourselves when we are attacked and God gives us victory over our enemies ... we are children of God who has promised us great strength and abundance and victory over our adversaries! This is a great truth we all should trust. David was a king that Scripture says had a heart for God, one in whom our Father delighted in. David was a very victorious king, having victory after victory because of his trust in God.
Psalm 6 (and 13) describe anguish. David let his society and passions dictate his actions; he had one of his trusted followers killed because he forgot to lift his head to God. He became weak in his victories; he gloried in his success, he "looked" at Bathsheba and had Uriah killed so he could have his own way. He trusted in the successes God had given him and became prideful, feeling he deserved what he wanted, or could get.
Let us humbly keep our heads lifted to our Father; the LORD forgave David when David again listened to God (when Nathan rebuked him, he acknowledged his sin and repented). What a humbling lesson we all can learn from! Let us let God lift our heads today, and praise Him for His everlasting love for us! This is where our shield continues to come into action, our Father protecting us against pride and our adversary/adversaries.
Read Psalms 3,4, 5 and Psalms 6 and 13; also 2 Samuel 11 and 12 for more illumination.

These cards are from a collection of Scripture memory cards given to Clara Kusler Mayer in her Sunday school class at the Gnadenfeld Congregational Church near Kulm, south-central North Dakota.
Clara, the daughter of Germans from Russia immigrants, was born in 1902 in Parkston, South Dakota. Her parents came from the villages near present-day Odessa, Ukraine: Johann Kusler from Worms, Beresan District, and Magdalena Grosz from Kulm, Bessarabia.
In March 1921, Clara Kusler married John Mayer in a double wedding ceremony along with Clara's brother, Edward Christian Kusler, who married John's sister, Carolina (Carrie) Mayer. Clara died in 1986 in Kulm, North Dakota.
This collection of memory cards featuring color lithography was originally published in New York. They were donated by Clara's sister, Adeline Kusler McCloy, to the Germans from Russia Heritage Collection in January 2002.

EXCERPT from :
trumpetcallofgodonline.com/index.php5?title=I_Am_Calling_...
*Yes I, your Redeemer, am calling you to come out of the churches of men,
To be separate, and to no more worship Me in that way!...To no more touch
the unclean thing,To no more let hypocrisy enter your ears... To no more
sit in the company of those who polluteMy name and lean upon their own
understanding, Who trust in their own righteousness as they sitUpon
self-made thrones of pride... A perverse and high-minded peopleWho rest
upon their own laurels,By which they highly esteem themselves,Seeking
always the praise and glory of men!*
MY PEOPLE, COME OUT FROM AMONGST THEM! Run from all these who reject this
Word and push out the hand against My messengers, who hold fast to all
these doctrines of men which I hate! Depart quickly from all these
rebellious houses, who refuse correction and shut their eyes to truth! For
they do always stop their ears from hearing the voice of The Lord their
God, choosing rather to persecute and slander those I have sent to them!
Behold, I have become as an idol to them, which they have formed in their
own image!... *Desecration! Great blasphemy!*
Therefore, because you have made for yourselves idols, many graven images;
and because you have committed adultery as a wayward harlot, allowing men
with suave tongues and clever lips to have their way with you, to be lords
over you, men in authority who do always fight against Me in word and by
deed, even to the persecuting of My messengers... *Therefore, thus says The
Lord: As you have become, and according to that for which you stand, so
shall you be treated.*
CHURCHES OF MEN, YOU DO CONTINUALLY CRUCIFY ME, BY ALL YOU SAY AND DO!
My wife's and my wedding rings in my scriptures. May 13, 2007 marks our 4th year of blissful marriage, and i was in a halfway romantic mood, so I borrowed her ring, and took the picture. Here is to many more years of marital bliss!
1 Corinthians 13
13 If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. 3 If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5 It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6 Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7 It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
8 Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when completeness comes, what is in part disappears. 11 When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I put the ways of childhood behind me. 12 For now we see only a reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
13 And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.

Picture shows Mahapanasana Cave, the Great Sima or the Holy Cave where the first International Buddhist Council took place between B.E.2498-2500 (1954-1956)
The Holy Cave in Yangon where the Sixth Council was convened in 2500 by 2500 Buddhist monks all over the world.
The manuscript from this International Council was later proof-read and edited in Roman script by Dhamma Society between 1999-2005. It was finally printed in Bangkok in 40-volume edition, and popularly known as "the World Tipitaka Edition".
In 2004, members of Dhamma Society made a special pilgrimage to the holy cave out of grateful gratitude for the historic council organised by the Burmese Buddhists over fifty years ago.
