To the churches of Galatia:
Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ, who gave Himself for our sins so that He might rescue us from this present evil age, according to the will of our God and Father, to whom be the glory forevermore. Amen.” Galatians 1:1-5.

It is wonderful to meditate on our God Who rescues us.
“He brought me forth also into a broad place; He rescued me, because He delighted in me.”
“He delivers me from my enemies; Surely You lift me above those who rise up against me; You rescue me from the violent man.”
“Commit yourself to the LORD; let Him deliver him; Let Him rescue him, because He delights in him.”
“The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him, And rescues them.”
“Call upon Me in the day of trouble; I shall rescue you, and you will honor Me.”
“He will rescue their life from oppression and violence, And their blood will be precious in his sight;”
“You called in trouble and I rescued you; I answered you in the hiding place of thunder; I proved you at the waters of Meribah. Selah.”
“He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble; I will rescue him and honor him.”
“For You have rescued my soul from death, My eyes from tears, My feet from stumbling.”
“And has rescued us from our adversaries, For His lovingkindness is everlasting;”
Or the captives of a tyrant be rescued?”
25Surely, thus says the LORD,
“Even the captives of the mighty man will be taken away,
And the prey of the tyrant will be rescued;
For I will contend with the one who contends with you,
And I will save your sons.
26 “I will feed your oppressors with their own flesh,
And they will become drunk with their own blood as with sweet wine;
And all flesh will know that I, the LORD, am your Savior
And your Redeemer, the Mighty One of Jacob.” Isaiah 49:24-26
Jeremiah 39:18
“For I will certainly rescue you, and you will not fall by the sword; but you will have your own life as booty, because you have trusted in Me,” declares the LORD.’”
Daniel 6:27
“He delivers and rescues and performs signs and wonders In heaven and on earth, Who has also delivered Daniel from the power of the lions.”
“68 “Blessed be the Lord God of Israel,
For He has visited us and accomplished redemption for His people,
69 And has raised up a horn of salvation for us
In the house of David His servant—
70 As He spoke by the mouth of His holy prophets from of old—
71 Salvation FROM OUR ENEMIES,
And FROM THE HAND OF ALL WHO HATE US;
72 To show mercy toward our fathers,
And to remember His holy covenant,
73 The oath which He swore to Abraham our father,
74 To grant us that we, being rescued from the hand of our enemies,
Might serve Him without fear,
75 In holiness and righteousness before Him all our days.” Luke 1:68-75
“For He rescued us from the domain of darkness, and transferred us to the kingdom of His beloved Son,”
“and to wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, that is Jesus, who rescues us from the wrath to come.”
“The Lord will rescue me from every evil deed, and will bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom; to Him be the glory forever and ever. Amen.”
“then the Lord knows how to rescue the godly from temptation, and to keep the unrighteous under punishment for the day of judgment,”
