One of the main debates that are front and center in the national discourse today has to do with the environment. Many say that due to global warming, the earth will soon go through cataclysmic changes. Whether that is true or not, there are always horrible earthquakes, hurricanes, tornados, tsunamis and other dangerous weather patterns in diverse regions that are capable of destroying entire cities and taking many lives. King David declared that ultimately, our only real, effective help comes God. When these frightful moments occur, nothing on earth help might able to help you. But I’ve heard how God has supernaturally protected His people, even in the midst of seemingly impossible circumstances. Here is what King David said: “God is our refuge and strength, A very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, Even though the earth be removed, And though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though its waters roar and be troubled, Though the mountains shake with its swelling. Selah” Psalm 46: 1-3. Right now, you might be in a situation that is seemingly impossible to resolve. Today God wants to remind you that He is your refuge and strength. He is present with you in your time of trouble. He is in the boat with you in the midst of the storm. He tells you today that you and Him TOGETHER will reach the other side! Be at peace…..He is your strong tower and anchor. You will not be moved!
This gives me peace and security
One of the greatest feelings is when a good friend promises you something important, and then keeps faithful to his or her word, especially when it’s important to you. Well, there are no more important promises than the ones that God gave us. These are the most important ones, and John 3:16 says: “For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.” John 10:10 “The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy. I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.” He promised us that He loves us. He promised us that in Christ, we will have everlasting life. He promised us more abundant life. The key here is that we can trust Him. He is faithful. People might fail us, but God will never fail us. This gives us confidence, peace and security, both now and for eternity. Just as long as God is with me, I can go through life’s difficulties because I know that He is there with me every step of the way. His destiny plan stands sure and His forever plan will never fail!
Psalm 33:11 (TPT) “His destiny-plan for the earth stands sure.
His forever-plan remains in place and will never fail.”
