God: Saviour

…the angel who has redeemed me from all harm—may He bless these boys. And may they be called by my name and the names of my fathers Abraham and Isaac, and may they grow into a multitude upon the earth.”

The LORD is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation. He is my God, and I will praise Him, my father’s God, and I will exalt Him.

But Jeshurun grew fat and kicked—becoming fat, bloated, and gorged. He abandoned the God who made him and scorned the Rock of his salvation.

For their rock is not like our Rock, even our enemies concede.

See now that I am He; there is no God besides Me. I bring death and I give life; I wound and I heal, and there is no one who can deliver from My hand.

May the bolts of your gate be iron and bronze, and may your strength match your days.” …

There is no one holy like the LORD. Indeed, there is no one besides You! And there is no Rock like our God.

…to be gracious to him and say, ‘Spare him from going down to the Pit; I have found his ransom,’

Then he sings before men with these words: ‘I have sinned and perverted what was right; yet I did not get what I deserved. …

Salvation belongs to the LORD; may Your blessing be on Your people. Selah

As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is flawless. He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.

For who is God besides the LORD? And who is the Rock except our God?

May the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be pleasing in Your sight, O LORD, my Rock and my Redeemer.

Guide me in Your truth and teach me, for You are the God of my salvation; all day long I wait for You.

Of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—whom shall I dread?

The LORD is the strength of His people, a stronghold of salvation for His anointed.

Into Your hands I commit my spirit; You have redeemed me, O LORD, God of truth.

Surely the eyes of the LORD are on those who fear Him, on those whose hope is in His loving devotion

…to deliver them from death and keep them alive in famine.

The LORD redeems His servants, and none who take refuge in Him will be condemned.

For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.

The salvation of the righteous is from the LORD; He is their stronghold in time of trouble.

The LORD helps and delivers them; He rescues and saves them from the wicked, because they take refuge in Him.

He who sacrifices a thank offering honors Me, and to him who rightly orders his way, I will show the salvation of God.”

For the choirmaster. According to Jeduthun. A Psalm of David. In God alone my soul finds rest; my salvation comes from Him.

He alone is my rock and my salvation. He is my fortress; I will never be shaken.

He alone is my rock and my salvation; He is my fortress; I will not be shaken.

My salvation and my honor rest on God, my strong rock; my refuge is in God.

With awesome deeds of righteousness You answer us, O God of our salvation, the hope of all the ends of the earth and of the farthest seas.

Blessed be the Lord, who daily bears our burden, the God of our salvation. Selah

Our God is a God of deliverance; the Lord GOD is our rescuer from death.

I will come in the strength of the Lord GOD; I will proclaim Your righteousness—Yours alone.

Yet God is my King from ancient times, working salvation on the earth.

From heaven You pronounced judgment, and the earth feared and was still

…when God rose up to judge, to save all the lowly of the earth. Selah

Surely His salvation is near to those who fear Him, that His glory may dwell in our land.

A song. A Psalm of the sons of Korah. For the choirmaster. According to Mahalath Leannoth. A Maskil of Heman the Ezrahite. O LORD, the God of my salvation, day and night I cry out before You.

Sing to the LORD, bless His name; proclaim His salvation day after day.

The LORD has proclaimed His salvation and revealed His righteousness to the nations.

He has remembered His love and faithfulness to the house of Israel; all the ends of the earth have seen the salvation of our God.

He has sent redemption to His people; He has ordained His covenant forever; holy and awesome is His name.

The LORD is my strength and my song, and He has become my salvation.

I will give You thanks, for You have answered me, and You have become my salvation.

The LORD is God; He has made His light to shine upon us. Bind the festal sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar.

The LORD will guard you from all evil; He will preserve your soul.

It is like the dew of Hermon falling on the mountains of Zion. For there the LORD has bestowed the blessing of life forevermore.

The LORD is good to all; His compassion rests on all He has made.

For the LORD takes pleasure in His people; He adorns the afflicted with salvation.

Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. For the LORD GOD is my strength and my song, and He also has become my salvation.”

For You have been a refuge for the poor, a stronghold for the needy in distress, a refuge from the storm, a shade from the heat. For the breath of the ruthless is like rain against a wall,

And in that day it will be said, “Surely this is our God; we have waited for Him, and He has saved us. This is the LORD for whom we have waited. Let us rejoice and be glad in His salvation.”

In that day this song will be sung in the land of Judah: We have a strong city; salvation is established as its walls and ramparts.

For the LORD is our Judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our King. It is He who will save us.

Say to those with anxious hearts: “Be strong, do not fear! Behold, your God will come with vengeance. With divine retribution He will come to save you.”

Do not fear, O Jacob, you worm, O few men of Israel. I will help you,” declares the LORD. “Your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel.

For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your place.

I, yes I, am the LORD, and there is no Savior but Me.

I alone decreed and saved and proclaimed—I, and not some foreign god among you. So you are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “that I am God.

Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “For your sake, I will send to Babylon and bring them all as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships in which they rejoice.

Thus says the LORD, the King and Redeemer of Israel, the LORD of Hosts: “I am the first and I am the last, and there is no God but Me.

I have blotted out your transgressions like a cloud, and your sins like a mist. Return to Me, for I have redeemed you. …

Truly You are a God who hides Himself, O God of Israel, the Savior.

But Israel will be saved by the LORD with an everlasting salvation; you will not be put to shame or humiliated, to ages everlasting.

Speak up and present your case—yes, let them take counsel together. Who foretold this long ago? Who announced it from ancient times? Was it not I, the LORD? There is no other God but Me, a righteous God and Savior; there is none but Me.

Turn to Me and be saved, all the ends of the earth; for I am God, and there is no other.

Listen to Me, you stubborn people, far removed from righteousness:

I am bringing My righteousness near; it is not far away, and My salvation will not be delayed. I will grant salvation to Zion and adorn Israel with My splendor.

Our Redeemer—the LORD of Hosts is His name—is the Holy One of Israel.

Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “I am the LORD your God, who teaches you for your benefit, who directs you in the way you should go.

Indeed, this is what the LORD says: “Even the captives of the mighty will be taken away, and the plunder of the tyrant will be retrieved; I will contend with those who contend with you, and I will save your children.

Why was no one there when I arrived? Why did no one answer when I called? Is My hand too short to redeem you? Or do I lack the strength to deliver you? Behold, My rebuke dries up the sea; I turn the rivers into a desert; the fish rot for lack of water and die of thirst.

For this is what the LORD says: “You were sold for nothing, and without money you will be redeemed.”

Break forth in joy, sing together, O ruins of Jerusalem, for the LORD has comforted His people; He has redeemed Jerusalem.

The LORD has bared His holy arm in the sight of all the nations; all the ends of the earth will see the salvation of our God.

Surely the arm of the LORD is not too short to save, nor His ear too dull to hear.

You will drink the milk of nations and nurse at the breasts of royalty; you will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior and your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.

For He said, “They are surely My people, sons who will not be disloyal.” So He became their Savior.

Yet You are our Father, though Abraham does not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us. You, O LORD, are our Father; our Redeemer from Everlasting is Your name.

Surely deception comes from the hills, and commotion from the mountains. Surely the salvation of Israel is in the LORD our God.

Is there no balm in Gilead? Is no physician there? Why then has the health of the daughter of my people not been restored?

O Hope of Israel, its Savior in times of distress, why are You like a stranger in the land, like a traveler who stays but a night?

But I will restore your health and heal your wounds, declares the LORD, because they call you an outcast, Zion, for whom no one cares.”

Nevertheless, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal its people and reveal to them the abundance of peace and truth.

Their Redeemer is strong; the LORD of Hosts is His name. He will fervently plead their case so that He may bring rest to the earth, but turmoil to those who live in Babylon.

They will no longer defile themselves with their idols or detestable images, or with any of their transgressions. I will save them from all their apostasies by which they sinned, and I will cleanse them. Then they will be My people, and I will be their God.

Yet I will have compassion on the house of Judah, and I will save them—not by bow or sword or war, not by horses and cavalry, but by the LORD their God.”

Yet I am the LORD your God ever since the land of Egypt; you know no God but Me, for there is no Savior besides Me.

You are destroyed, O Israel, because you are against Me—against your helper.

The LORD will roar from Zion and raise His voice from Jerusalem; heaven and earth will tremble. But the LORD will be a refuge for His people, a stronghold for the people of Israel.

But I, with the voice of thanksgiving, will sacrifice to You. I will fulfill what I have vowed. Salvation is from the LORD!”

As for you, because of the blood of My covenant, I will release your prisoners from the waterless pit.

Return to your stronghold, O prisoners of hope; even today I declare that I will restore to you double.

On that day the LORD their God will save them as the flock of His people; for like jewels in a crown they will sparkle over His land.

“Blessed be the Lord, the God of Israel, because He has visited and redeemed His people.

For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that everyone who believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.

For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him.

And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that I shall lose none of those He has given Me, but raise them up at the last day.

I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, first to the Jew, then to the Greek.

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.

And those He predestined, He also called; those He called, He also justified; those He justified, He also glorified. …

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God.

All this is from God, who reconciled us to Himself through Christ and gave us the ministry of reconciliation:

Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly realms.

He predestined us for adoption as His sons through Jesus Christ, according to the good pleasure of His will,

For God has not appointed us to suffer wrath, but to obtain salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.

Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself and God our Father, who by grace has loved us and given us eternal comfort and good hope,

…encourage your hearts and strengthen you in every good word and deed.

This is good and pleasing in the sight of God our Savior,

…who wants everyone to be saved and to come to the knowledge of the truth.

To this end we labor and strive, because we have set our hope on the living God, who is the Savior of everyone, and especially of those who believe.

He has saved us and called us to a holy calling, not because of our works, but by His own purpose and by the grace He granted us in Christ Jesus before time began.

…in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began.

In His own time He has made His word evident in the proclamation entrusted to me by the command of God our Savior.

…not stealing from them, but showing all good faith, so that in every respect they will adorn the teaching about God our Savior.

For the grace of God has appeared, bringing salvation to everyone.

But when the kindness of God our Savior and His love for mankind appeared,

He saved us, not by the righteous deeds we had done, but according to His mercy, through the washing of new birth and renewal by the Holy Spirit.

…who through faith are shielded by God’s power for the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.

This is how God’s love was revealed among us: God sent His one and only Son into the world, so that we might live through Him.

And love consists in this: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as the atoning sacrifice for our sins.

And this is that testimony: God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son.

And they cried out in a loud voice: “Salvation to our God, who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb!”

After this I heard a sound like the roar of a great multitude in heaven, shouting: “Hallelujah! Salvation and glory and power belong to our God!
