Deliverer (Week 4) A-Z Praises to God

BIBLE READING LINK - For those reading through the Bible this year with LCC.

Warm greetings, dear sisters.

Thank you for journeying with us over the past three weeks as we have reflected on God as Almighty, Benevolent (Good), and Compassionate. It has been a blessing to grow together in seeing more clearly who He is.

If this is your first time joining us, you are most welcome. Feel free to go back to the previous studies, or simply begin here and continue along with us.

This week we are reflecting on God as Deliverer—the One who sees, intervenes, and brings His people through.

As we continue, we build on what we have already learned: the God who is all-powerful, perfectly good, and full of compassion is the very One who works in our lives to rescue, sustain, and bring us through.

Take this week at your own pace. Move through each section when you are able. Whether you complete one portion a day or several at once, let this be a meaningful time with the Lord.

SUNDAY — READ & REFLECT

P — Prayer

Lord, open my eyes to see You as my Deliverer. Help me to trust You personally and not just in what I know about You.

R — Read (Return to these throughout the week)

“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer…” — Psalm 18:2

“He delivered us from so great a peril of death, and will deliver us…” — 2 Corinthians 1:10

“The righteous is delivered from trouble…” — Proverbs 11:8

“The Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials…” — 2 Peter 2:9

“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you…” — Psalm 50:15

Name it before God:

Share the scripture from the reading above that stood out to you.

The Lord is my Deliverer.

From the passages you read:

God is described as personal—my Deliverer
“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer…” — Psalm 18:2
Deliverance is something God actively does
“The Lord knows how to rescue the godly from trials…” — 2 Peter 2:9
God rescues in times of trouble

If you feel overwhelmed, this truth is for you:

God sees and responds—He is not distant.

Carry this with you today:

God is not distant—He steps in.

Today's Proverbs:
“The name of the Lord is a strong tower;
the righteous runs into it and is safe.” — Proverbs 18:10.

Pause here and reflect on what the Lord has shown you. Continue tomorrow, God willing.

TUESDAY — MEANING

M — Meaning (Deeper Insight)

Deliverer (Hebrew: palat, natsal)
To rescue, to snatch away, to bring into safety.

Deeper Understanding:
God as Deliverer means He is not distant from your struggles—He steps in.

We often try to fix, control, or escape situations on our own.
But God as Deliverer reminds us that true rescue comes from Him—not from our own strength.

His deliverance is:

Relational — He cares deeply about you
Intentional — He responds with purpose
Active — He moves on your behalf

Deliverance may come:

Out of a situation
Through a situation
Within a situation by strengthening you

God’s deliverance is:

Timely — never late
Wise — according to His perfect plan
Complete — He finishes what He begins

Even when you do not see immediate change, God is still working.

Look back:
Where has God already delivered you in the past? Take a moment to remember.

Take a moment to sit with this truth.

On the WOW chat:

Type “Amen” if you agree that God as Deliverer means He is not distant from your struggles—He steps in.

Faith Declaration:

By faith, I trust You as my Deliverer in every situation.

Carry this with you today:

God is working, even when I cannot see it.

Today's Proverbs:
“He who gives attention to the word will find good,
and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.” — Proverbs 16:20

Pause here and let this truth settle in your heart. Return tomorrow, God willing.

WEDNESDAY — PRAISE

P — Praise (with Scripture)

Lord, I praise You because You are my Deliverer.
“The Lord is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer…” — Psalm 18:2

You are my place of safety and protection.
“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.” — Psalm 46:1

You are my strength when I feel weak.
“The Lord is the strength of my life…” — Psalm 27:1

You see what I am facing, and You are not distant.

April 19 – April 25 - 📖 Weekly Bible Journey | Days 109–115

This week may feel heavy in places, but do not miss the mercy of God in the midst of it.

Even when people are inconsistent, God remains faithful.
Even when the story is painful, the Lord is still at work.

Pray simply:
“Lord, help me to see Your faithfulness even in difficult chapters.”

🌿 Weekly Overview

This week takes us through the closing chapters of Judges and into the opening chapters of Ruth. In Judges 9–21, we see the spiritual and moral decline of Israel in sobering detail. These chapters remind us of the danger of living without wholehearted submission to God. Then, in Ruth 1–2, the tone shifts beautifully as we begin to see God’s quiet providence at work in the lives of ordinary people.

In Acts 20–26, Paul continues his ministry journey and then gives his defense before rulers and leaders. Though he faces hardship and accusation, the gospel continues to be proclaimed boldly and clearly.

The Psalms (109–115) include cries for help, declarations of God’s greatness, and heartfelt praise. They remind us to keep looking to the Lord, whose name alone deserves glory.

📅 Daily Reading Plan

Day 109 – Sunday, April 19
Judges 9–10 | Acts 20 | Psalm 109

Day 110 – Monday, April 20
Judges 11–12 | Acts 21 | Psalm 110

Day 111 – Tuesday, April 21
Judges 13–14 | Acts 22 | Psalm 111

Day 112 – Wednesday, April 22
Judges 15–16 | Acts 23 | Psalm 112

COMPASSION (Week 3) A-Z PRAISES TO GOD

Week 3 — C: Compassionate

Warm greetings, dear sisters.

Thank you for journeying through Week 2 — Good with us. I pray that as you reflected on the goodness of God, your heart was encouraged and strengthened. May that truth continue to remain with you in the days ahead.

As we move into Week 3, let us continue one step at a time. Whether you are returning, catching up, or joining us for the first time, you are warmly welcome. Let us keep drawing near to the Lord with open hearts.

How to Use This Study

This study is meant to help you spend meaningful time with God, not to feel heavy or burdensome. You are welcome to use it in the way that best fits your schedule and season.

You may choose to follow the suggested weekly flow and move through it little by little during the week. You may begin on another day if Sunday or Monday does not work well for you. Or, if you prefer, you may set aside about an hour and do the full study in one sitting.

The day breakdown is simply there to give structure and make the study feel more manageable. Please feel free to use it in the way that helps you draw near to the Lord most sincerely.

You may also wish to consider setting aside one day each week to fast, as you are able, and use that week’s PROMPTS study as your guide during your time with the Lord. This is completely optional, but it can be a beautiful way to slow down, focus your heart, meditate on His Word, and praise Him more intentionally.

Whether you spread it out through the week, complete it in one sitting, or use it during a fast day, let this study serve as a guide to help you know God more, honour Him more, and praise Him more personally.

Take your time with each section. There is no need to rush. Let each truth lead you into praise, prayer, and reflection.

C — Compassionate

“The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger and abounding in lovingkindness.”
— Psalm 103:8

Focus for this week:
Receiving, trusting, and reflecting the compassion of God.
