God's Protection


The world is full of evil ones, some are easy to spot and others are in deep disguise.  Unfortunately sometime the enemy is someone close to us, a friend or family member.  But regardless if the enemy is someone close to us or not the enemy is always in attack mode trying to bring you down.  But the good news is God is on your side.  God will provide you with the strength you need to endure and protect you from every attack of the enemy.  God is always protecting you, making sure you come out on top, even from enemies you don’t know exist.  Sometimes it may seem like the attacks are getting you down and that you are all alone but God is right there. Whatever you do, don’t stoop to the level of the enemy, don’t seek revenge for God says that vengeance is His and He will prepare a table before you in the presence of your enemies.  God’s vengeance may not look like that of humans but God will take those evil attacks, turn them around for you good and bless you right in front of your enemies.  So don’t worry or stress about those who are out to get you because God will provide you strength and protect you from the enemy.

And pray that we may be delivered from wicked and evil people, for not everyone has faith. But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one. We have confidence in the Lord that you are doing and will continue to do the things we command. May the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance.
~2 Thessalonians 3:2-5

Daily Scripture: The Lord is Faithful


In the world we live in people will sometimes let you down.  Friends will turn on you, people will betray you and talk about you, break your heart, and continuously break the promises they gave you.  Those are all actions of this world but we have a friend that is out of this world that is and always will be faithful.  In the Word you will find several promises that God makes to all of us.  God promises to never leave us nor forsake us, God promises to supply all of our needs, God promises to lift up the brokenhearted, God promises that He will give us all success, God promises to be an ever present help in a time of trouble, God promises to be our strength when we are weak, and the list goes on and on.  God loves each and everyone one of you and whatever He has promised you know that it will come true.  Because God loves each of us he will lift us all up when we are bowed down and satisfy all of our desires and will remain faithful through it all.  Hold on to all of the promises of God for He is faithful to each of us and faithful to all of His promises.

13 Your kingdom is an everlasting kingdom,
    and your dominion endures through all generations.
The Lord is trustworthy in all he promises
    and faithful in all he does.
14 The Lord upholds all who fall
    and lifts up all who are bowed down.
15 The eyes of all look to you,
    and you give them their food at the proper time.
16 You open your hand
    and satisfy the desires of every living thing.
~Psalm 145:13-16
