David wrote: "For You, LORD, will bless the righteous with favor will You compass him as with a shield (Psalm 5:12)." David lived a life of flight and fear, but My favor was always surrounding Him.
He knew that he could run to Me, his high tower, whenever he was afraid. When he was running from Saul, he knew that whenever he was overwhelmed, he could go to the rock that was higher than him.
He knew that I was a shield around about him, and that I was the glory and lifter of his head. Every time you are overwhelmed by the circumstances of life, know with assurance that I am your shield. Many are the afflictions of the righteous, but I deliver them out of them all.
PSALM 5:12, 34:19
