The Lord is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer;
my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
Psalm 18:2 NIV
SALVATION: to be delivered (or rescued) from peril.

My dad worked at a salvage yard.
That sounded close enough.
So, I figured salvation had to do with
claiming something that was broken and messed up …
Turns out I was pretty close.

’El yeshu‘atenu: (Hebrew) “God is our Salvation”
El means God, Yeshua is the Hebrew name “Joshua” (“The Lord is Salvation”)
which, in Greek, is Jesus.
There is salvation in no one else!
God has given no other name under heaven
by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 NLT
**********
God’s grace –
His goodness and love toward us in spite of our sin –
is the wellspring of our salvation.
Billy Graham
The Lord your God is with you.
He is the Mighty Warrior who saves.
He will take great delight in you.
In his love he will no longer punish you.
Instead, he will sing for joy because of you.”
Zephaniah 3:17 New International Reader’s Version
God is my strength, God is my song,
and, yes! God is my salvation.
This is the kind of God I have
and I’m telling the world!
Exodus 15:2 The Message
