Confessions of God's protection 


In the shadow of turmoil, I lift my eyes unto the hills, for there I find refuge, strength, and unwavering protection from the Almighty (Psalm 121:1-2). As the mountains stand steadfast, so does the shield of the Lord, encompassing me with divine fortitude against every adversity. 


Amidst the chaos that ensnares, I proclaim Psalm 18:2, "The LORD is my rock, my fortress, and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge." In the shelter of His wings, I find solace, for His faithfulness is my shield and rampart (Psalm 91:4). 


Though peril may encroach, I do not falter, for the Lord goes before me as a mighty warrior (Exodus 14:14). With each step, His presence guides and guards me, and under His watchful gaze, I am shielded from harm (Psalm 121:5). 


As I traverse the valleys of uncertainty, I cling to the promise of Psalm 91:11-12, "For he will command his angels concerning me to guard me in all my ways. They will lift me up in their hands, so that I will not strike my foot against a stone." With celestial hosts as my companions, all fears will be replaced by steadfast trust in God's providence. 


In the depths of despair, I cry out to the Lord, and He hears my voice (Psalm 116:1-2). His ear is attentive to my pleas, and in His mercy, He extends His hand to lift me from the abyss of despair, restoring hope and granting deliverance. 


In the face of adversity, I declare with unwavering faith, "The LORD is my light and my salvation—whom shall I fear? The LORD is the stronghold of my life—of whom shall I be afraid?" (Psalm 27:1). With the assurance of His presence, I stand firm, fortified by His promises and emboldened by His love. 


Through the darkest of nights and the fiercest of storms, I am not alone, for the Lord is with me (Psalm 23:4). His rod and staff comfort and protect me, guiding me along the path of righteousness. 


As I conclude my prayer before you Holy Father, I echo the words of Psalm 91:14-16, "Because he loves me," says the LORD, "I will rescue him; I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name. He will call on me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble, I will deliver him and honor him. With long life, I will satisfy him and show him my salvation." 


In your embrace, I find peace. In your presence, I find strength. In your love, I find eternal refuge.

THE WISEST THING TO DO IN YOUR LIFE

  Daniel 12:3 (GNT) says, “The wise leaders will shine with all the brightness of the sky. And those who have taught many people to do what is right will shine like the stars forever.” This verse speaks about the reward God will give His faithful people on the last day. Those who live with wisdom and lead others to righteousness will shine like stars in the sky—forever. What a powerful promise! Today, I want to teach you how to be wise so you can receive this reward. The Bible says in James 1:5 (NKJV), “If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God...”  This means wisdom comes from God, and He is willing to give it to anyone who asks. When you receive God’s wisdom, you will learn how to live the right way and make decisions that please Him. You will also have the power to guide others. The wisest thing you can ever do in life is to preach the Gospel—to help people turn away from sin and accept Jesus Christ. That is the kind of wisdom that brings eternal rewards. Also, if you ...

MISPLACED FEAR

Matthew 10:28  (NKJV) says: “And do not fear those who kill the body but cannot kill the soul. But rather fear Him who is able to destroy both soul and body in hell.”   This is a direct call from Jesus to correct our fears. Many people fear human threats, sickness, poverty, storms, or death. Yet Jesus reminds us that these things can only touch the body. The true danger is sin, because it separates us from God and leads to eternal destruction. The only fear that matters is the fear of God, for He alone holds the destiny of both the body and soul. One day I was in a garage fixing my car. It was an open space and suddenly it began raining heavily. All the mechanics rushed to take shelter inside. As we stood, they began sharing jokes, laughing about drinking and the women they slept with. I always preach to them, telling them to repent and receive Jesus. But they laughed it off. As we were standing there inside, suddenly the storm grew stronger, with thunder and lightning flashin...
