He simply won’t allow it!

Proverbs 3:26 says: “for the Lord is your security. He will keep your foot from being caught in a trap.” There are many traps in life. The enemy of our souls is very creative  and he will attempt to ensnare us in many ways. Frankly, we are no match for him in our own power. But if we put our lives in the hands of the Lord, He promises that He will protect us. He is our security. The Lord sees what we cannot see. Our military has a really cool gadget that allows the soldiers to see at night. This gives them the upper hand when they are in battle during the night hours. Since their enemies cannot see at night with their natural eyes, our military has the upper hand, and of course, because of their enhanced ability to see what others cannot see, they will win. It’s the same way with our Lord. He sees what we cannot see, even in the dark periods of our lives. He promises us that if we trust Him, He will keep our foot from being caught in a trap. We don’t have to go into battle alone. He’s with us every day and in every situation. Be encouraged today. Greater is He that is in you!

Proverbs 3:26 “for the Lord is your security. He will keep your foot from being caught in a trap.”

He’s got your back!

Did you know that when someone attacks you, God takes it personally? In Exodus 23:22 it says: “But if you indeed obey His voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries.” That is a powerful promise. Mark 9:41 & 42 says: “For whoever gives you a cup of water to drink in My name, because you belong to Christ, assuredly, I say to you, he will by no means lose his reward. But whoever causes one of these little ones who believe in Me to stumble, it would be better for him if a millstone were hung around his neck, and he were thrown into the sea.” When someone attacks you, you can be sure that Heaven is aware, and that retribution will come. You can be confident that you have “Heavenly backup!” The truth is we don’t have to fear because those that are with us are more than those who are with them! (2 Kings 6:16)

Exodus 23:22: “But if you indeed obey His voice and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries.”

2 Kings 6:16-17 “So he answered, “Do not fear, for those who are with us are more than those who are with them.”  And Elisha prayed, and said, “Lord, I pray, open his eyes that he may see.” Then the Lord opened the eyes of the young man, and he saw. And behold, the mountain was full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”
