I read D.L.
Moody said, "When a man has no strength if he leans on God, he becomes
powerful."
The Lord is
trustworthy, and when we are facing insurmountable issues and problems, we
should not turn to men, but lean on God, He is powerful. What does it mean to
trust in God? He has a position of security, and we can trust Him because He
reveals Himself as reliable. If you will take a moment with me and read Psalm
91 out loud, you will see the Lord God is a symbol of protection from attack.
The best description I can give you is of an old Castle with the walls that
surround it, people living behind these fortified walls of protection. It would
have to be a smart and robust army that penetrates these sturdy walls, how we
should view God, His robust, sturdy and will put His arms around us His
children. Putting our trust in the Lord is the way we should go. He has never
failed us, why now?
Psalm 91 MSG
"You who
sit down in the High God's presence, spend the night in Shaddai's shadow, Say
this: "God, you're my refuge. I
trust in you, and I'm safe!"
That's right -
he rescues you from hidden traps, shields you from deadly hazards. His massive
outstretched arms protect you - under them, you're perfectly safe; his arms
fend off all harm. Fear nothing - not wild wolves in the night, not flying
arrows in the day. Not disease that prowls through the darkness, not disaster
that erupts at high noon. Even though others succumb all around, drop like
flies right and left, no harm will also graze you. You'll stand untouched,
watch it all from a distance, watch the wicked turn into corpses. Yes, because
God's your refuge, the High God your very own home, evil can't get close to
you, harm can't get through the door. He ordered his angels to guard you
wherever you go. If you stumble, they'll catch you; their job is to keep you
from falling. You'll walk unharmed among lions and snakes, and kick young lions
and serpents from the path."
Prayer
High God, please
Abba Father, help me today, I cannot get through this day without your hand
over my life, I run to You Lord, You are my strong tower. In the name of Jesus
Christ, amen.
