God's got us covered…He's got our back. His eyes and ears
are always in tune with all of His children all over this globe (Psalm 34:15). His
love for us is everlasting and provides us with true fulfillment and
contentment.
God brought together sun bleached skeletons in the desert
and erected a great army - the perfect picture of Him restoring Israel as a
nation (Ezekiel 37:1-14). His love and provision for Israel are a constant
testimony to us of His faithfulness to His Saints.
When the pain of life overwhelms us, we find
encouragement, peace and joy in the fact that God is always watching, and never
forsaking us or leaving us on our own (Hebrews 13:5).
He dwells within us and is experiencing our pain right
along with us. His peace guards us (Philippians 4:7). He knows our needs before
we do, and He already provided for them before we were even born (Ephesians
2:10; Jeremiah 29:11; Philippians 4:19).
When Satan sends his emissaries of discouragement to beat
us down, we have a choice to believe their lies or to trust God. Regardless of
the trouble we face, God is always there in us to help us through the
experience (Psalm 46:1).
We simply place our faith in His faithfulness and He
lifts us out of the pit of depression and hopelessness and plants our feet
firmly on the Rock of Christ (Psalm 18:31, 40:2).
His work is perfect and He is just in all of His ways. He
is our faithful God without injustice, righteous and upright in all of His ways
(Deuteronomy 32:4; Psalm 92:15).
There is no one like our God, holy and stable (1 Samuel
2:2). We have no need to fear when He is our Rock of refuge (Isaiah 44:8;
Deuteronomy 32:31, 32:37). He is our salvation and rest, our strength and
sanctuary (Psalm 62:7).
Prayer:
Father God, we call to You and You are not deaf to our
pleas (Psalm 28:1). You never allow us to be ashamed of our relationship with
You. You rescue us quickly as a stronghold and fortress. You lead and guide us
for Your name's sake (Psalm 31:1-3). We continually come to You as our hiding
place and You save us (Psalm 71:3).
We trust in You forever as our God, our Lord and our
everlasting Rock (Isaiah 26:4; Psalm 91:2). You are the Lord of a host of
angels and our stronghold (Psalm 46:7). You are our deliver, our shield, the horn
of our salvation and full of loving kindness (Psalm 144:2). Thank You for
delivering us from violence (2 Samuel 22:3).
Thought for the Day:
No matter where we are on the face of the earth, when our heart is discouraged and we call to God, He leads us to His Rock that lifts us above the storms. - Psalm 61:2
