Blessing For TodayMfano

Protective Covering 

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. He will rescue us from every trap and protect us from all fatal diseases. He is a God who went till the cross to protect us. 

In the Old Testament, we see the king of Syria sending his army against Elisha the prophet. The enemies came by night and surrounded the city. The servant of Elisha was frightened at the sight of the army and cried out to his master. “Alas! My master what shall we do?” So Elisha prayed to the Lord to open the eyes of his servant. Then the Lord opened his eyes and he saw that the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around him. No one could lay hands on him and the Lord struck the eyes of the Syrians, with blindness. Thus, Elisha stood all alone and conquered the kingdom. 

My friend, whatever safety measures you take to protect yourself in this world can never be permanently effective. It’s because the devil is the prince of the world and he roams about waiting to devour the people. So when you protect yourself by worldly means, it is of no use. But God has promised you, “My child, if I enter into a house, I will put a hedge around the house and dwell amidst them.” 

Prayer

“Loving Lord, thank You for the word You spoke to me today. Father, there are many in this world who rise against me. No matter how far I run away, they keep hurting me. Father, today I commit myself into Your hands. Let not my enemies overcome me. This I pray in Jesus’ name, Amen.” 

‘The Lord of lords will be a hedge around you’
