Assurance of God’s Protection
Be still and know that God is with you. He is your deliverer. He is your comforter. He goes before you to prepare a table for you in the presence of your enemies. Therefore, rejoice for He has not forsaken you. He is with you even until the end of the world. He has marked you with His precious blood. Nothing by any means can harm you. He is “I Am.” There’s none like Him. He will not give His glory to another. He keeps His promises and fulfills them. He is a Father to the fatherless. He is the full expression of love and perfection. He has come for your rescue, to deliver you from the hands of your oppressors. He does not give false hope. He does not want destruction for His children. He wants eternal life for all. He gives it freely to those who ask for it. He is the “Living Water” who waters your dry land, who pours out rain from the heavens so that you have plenty and your land does not remain barren. He opens up heaven for you and gives you fresh manna. He satisfies you with His love in abundance. He never leaves you. He is always there for you in your silent cries, in your times of pain and agony, sorrow and disappointments. He never leaves you. You are in the palm of His hand, in the hands of your Heavenly Father. He will never leave you alone. He will hold you by your hand and walk with you. He will take the steps with you. He will order your steps. He will direct you. He will instruct you.
You have remained faithful even in the fiery furnace. Even when your strength seemed to be failing, you kept His Word. You did not deny His name. You praised Him through the storms unbearable. You praised Him through the gushing waters. You praised Him through the pit and dungeon. You praised Him through the burning bush. You acknowledged His name. Though you had a little strength, you kept your faith in Him. He could hear the silent cries of your heart. He mourned with you. He cried with you. He wept for you. He wiped your tears. He felt your pain. He felt your sorrow. It was not yours but His, too. He heard your heartbeat, your yearning and crying for your Heavenly Father. You are not an outcast. You are His. You belong to Him. Let not the chaos and uncertainties of this world distract you for He is always walking beside you. He will never let go of your hand. For those who come to Him, become His, He resides in them and they reside in Him. When they invite Him into their hearts, He becomes their home. He lives with them. His glorious presence surrounds them. He becomes a wall of fire around them to protect His children. He becomes their strength in times of trouble. He becomes their hope, their refuge, place of shelter, strong tower. He is your Rock. He is your fortress. Those who seek Him shall find Him. He will answer their call. He will be their help. He will come for their rescue. He will deliver them. He will place their feet on the high mountains. He will uphold them with His righteous right hand.
