Fear of man will prove to be a snare, but whoever trusts
in the Lord is kept safe.
Proverbs 29:25
New International Version
THOUGHTS ABOUT
TODAY'S VERSE
Fear
is such a paralyzing emotion. It robs us vitality, decision-making ability, and
strength. Courage helps us step out of fear's paralysis and turn its nervous
edge into power. But this kind of courage comes to us fully only when we know
that all that Satan and his allies can really have of us is our bodies. He
cannot take our mind, our attitude, our faith, and most of all, he cannot take
our relationship with God, given to us through Jesus.
MY PRAYER
O
Savior, my Great Redeemer, thank you for triumphing over all that I fear
through Jesus. You have not only given me a hero I trust, but a hope by which I
can live victoriously. Through my Conquering King I thank you. Amen.
But God!
Today's Scripture:
O
LORD, how many are my foes! How many rise up against me! ...But you are a
shield around me, O LORD; you bestow glory on me and lift up my head.
Psalm 3:1-3, NIV.
Today's Word:
When
David wrote this verse, He was in a very difficult situation. He was actually
running for his life from his very own son who wanted to kill him and take over
the throne. Can you imagine?! David was probably feeling overwhelmed,
distraught, heartbroken, betrayed and abandoned. Have you ever felt that way?
But notice that David didn’t just tell the Lord all about his problems. He told
the Lord about his faith when he said, “But You, God, are a shield around me…”
David made the choice to focus on God’s goodness no matter what.
We
have to remember, circumstances may be tough, but God is working behind the
scenes on your behalf. You may have a difficult relationship, but God is your
Restorer today. You may have an overwhelming need, but God is your Provider
today! The doctors may have told you that you have an incurable disease, but
God is your Healer today! Things may look impossible today, BUT WITH GOD, all
things are possible! If you’ll keep that constant attitude of faith and
victory, you’ll see the hand of God move in your life, and you will experience
the life of victory He has in store for you!
Prayer for Today:
Father,
thank You for always being faithful and working in my life. Today I open my
heart to You and choose to focus on You instead of my circumstances. I know
that with You, all things are possible in Jesus name. Amen.
