Daily Scripture: Our Own Personal Bodyguards


We are constantly under attack by the enemy, for the enemy has come to kill, steal and destroy.  Some of these attacks we see with our own eyes but there are also some attacks against us that we know nothing about.  These attacks are taken care of without us even knowing anything about them. How is that?  God has us all surrounded and regardless of whether you know it or not, you have your own personal bodyguards protecting you each and every day.  God is our shield and because we have that shield, God makes sure that we are covered and saves us from harm and disaster.  We are all surrounded by God’s angels that He has commanded to guard us in everything concerning us, that He has commanded to lift us so that we will not stumble or be harmed, that they lift us up above the enemy.  There’s a lot of snakes in this world, some that are so hidden that we don’t even know that they’re there, but because of our guard of protection we can walk among the snakes in our lives and still come out unharmed and trampling them along the way.  Keep your head up, don’t be afraid of your surroundings because you have a special group of bodyguards that’s protecting you from dangers seen and unseen.

If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,”
    and you make the Most High your dwelling,
10 no harm will overtake you,
    no disaster will come near your tent.
11 For he will command his angels concerning you
    to guard you in all your ways;
12 they will lift you up in their hands,
    so that you will not strike your foot against a stone.
13 You will tread on the lion and the cobra;
    you will trample the great lion and the serpent.
~Psalm 91:9-13
