Psalms 34:19 – “Many are the afflictions of the righteous, But the Lord delivers him out of them all.”
In life, we will experience afflictions, problems, challenges and issues. Look what the Lord Jesus said in John 16:33:
“I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart, because I have overcome the world.”
Acts 10: 37-38 says:
”That word you know, which was proclaimed throughout all Judea, and began from Galilee after the baptism which John preached: how God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Spirit and with power, who went about doing good and healing all who were oppressed by the devil, for God was with Him.”
The presence of Jesus delivers, does good, and heals all who are oppressed by the devil. The key is to always walk in the presence of God. Daily invite His presence in your heart, your home, your job,
your ministry and all of your relationships. That is why it is so vital that we always put Him first and seek Him early before doing anything else throughout the day. Put on the whole armor of God first thing in the morning so that any and all afflictions, issues, problems, attacks, tribulations and trials will not be able to overwhelm you.
Yes, you will experience many issues throughout your life. But always remember, God is with you, and He promises that He will deliver you out of every affliction!
Prayer:
Thank You Heavenly Father that You deliver me from any and all afflictions. You are a faithful and loving Father and You look after and protect your children. Today I will adjust my schedule to ensure that I put You first. I invite your presence in my heart, home, job, ministry and all my relationships. I will ensure that I seek You first every morning and put on the whole armor of God, so that any and all afflictions, issues, problems, attacks, tribulation and trials will NOT be able to affect me in any way because You are with me. Thank You for your loving kindness which You extend to my family and me every day! In Jesus’ Name, I pray, Amen!
