GOD’S PROTECTION FOR HIS PEOPLE

GOD’S PROTECTION FOR HIS PEOPLE

The circumstances that surround us in our everyday world can cause us to waver in our faith, if we don’t read, mediate, and study God’s word daily. Those circumstances can cause us to wonder how are we going to survive. But, in spite of the pandemonium that is on display daily in our world, we can still trust Almighty God to be our protection, because if we have made Jesus Christ our Savior and Lord then God is our Heavenly Father (John 1:12). Our Father God made many promises to us for such a time as this. His word promises in Psalm 91:1-2 (NKJV), “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, ‘He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.’” No matter how bleak it looks in our world, LORD, I am going to trust You, knowing You can handle any situation on the world stage. I am going to continue to pray, do my best to live up to what You, Father God, called me to do, and thank You daily for fulfilling Your promises in the lives of my loved ones and me along with all those that You place on my heart to pray for. Father, I love how You allow my family and me, as well as whosoever will, come to live in Your secret place, where we have the safety of a fortress—a heavenly fortified place of protection. I am going to continue to say and believe what You, Heavenly Father, said in Your word You will do because Your word is so awesome, bringing peace and comfort to those of us living in YOUR secret place. Thank You, LORD GOD for being such a wonderful Heavenly Father. Thank You, Jesus, My Glorious Savior for inviting me to be a part of Your Beautiful Family. I feel so blessed being able to trust You, Father God, Your word, and Your Son, Jesus Christ, as my protection in every situation. Hallelujah!!! Glory to You, Heavenly Father and to Jesus Christ my Lord!!!
