Passion for Praise: 'He Ransoms Me'

Thursday, May 16, 2019

But I will call on God, and the Lord will rescue me. Morning, noon, and night I cry out in my distress, and the Lord hears my voice. He ransoms me and keeps me safe from the battle waged against me, though many still oppose me.
— Psalm 55:16-18
