Pastor Chris
Let us hold fast the profession
of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) (Hebrews
10:23).
The Lord Jesus, reflecting on the crises of these last days warned that,
"…because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold"
(Matthew 24:12).
Indeed, many are beginning to lose hope, wondering if God still cares
and protects. Of course, He still cares for, and protects, His children!
Psalm 91:3-8 represents God’s sovereign declaration with regard to His
commitment to protect and take care of you—even in the midst of all the
troubles and crises in the world! It says, "Surely he shall deliver thee
from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover
thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall
be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night;
nor for the arrow that flies by day; Nor for the pestilence that walked in
darkness; nor for the destruction that wasted at noonday. A thousand shall
fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come
nigh thee…." How comforting this is!
Trust His Word. You’re shielded, and divinely protected against the
onslaught of the enemy: whether at night, or in the day, the Lord protects
and takes care of you. Your faith response, therefore, should be, "The
Lord is in me, with me, and for me; therefore, I refuse to fear!"
No matter how adverse or severe the situation or the circumstances
around you might be, refuse to let your heart be troubled! Keep your focus on
God’s Word. He said in Isaiah 43:2, "When thou passes through the waters,
I will be with thee; and through the rivers, they shall not overflow thee: when
thou walks through the fire, thou shalt not be burned; neither shall the
flame kindle upon thee." Trust and hold on to His Word, for therein is
your safety.
Confession My trust is in the Lord my God;
He’s my shield and buckler, my strength, and safety! He’s my refuge and strong
tower; I’m strong in Him; rooted and grounded in His love, and flourishing in
every area of my life. Glory to God!
