Trust God and be safe – Sis. Stella Dhinakaran
“He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” (Psalm 91:2)
Dear friend, I greet you in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. God’s promise for you is from Psalm 91:2, “He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust.” Yes, the Psalmist was trusting in the Lord completely and today this Psalm encourages us to trust God just like him for then God Himself will keep us safe. David, the Psalmist was a man of God and he put his trust on God and God alone.
Psalm 18:1&2 says, “He (David) sang to the LORD the words of this song when the LORD delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. He said: I love you, LORD, my strength. The LORD is my rock, my fortress and my deliverer; my God is my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.” He also writes in Psalm 46:1, “God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble.”
Because David trusted the Lord so much the Lord was with him at all times. There were times in his life when everyone, even his own people were against him and they were ready to stone him to death. Yet at that time, we see as in 1 Samuel 30:6, “David was greatly distressed because the men were talking of stoning him; each one was bitter in spirit because of his sons and daughters. But David found strength in the LORD his God.” David was running for life for all were trying to kill him. However he found his strength and hope in God. He believed in the Lord and the Lord did a miracle. He was saved and all his people were saved and he got back all that he lost. You too will receive this same blessing if you look to God and trust Him. Believe and be blessed. Commit your life to Him and make Him your refuge.
Prayer:
Loving Father,
Thank You for You are always with me. Be my hope and my refuge Lord. I trust in You completely. I give my life to You. Keep me safe and honor me by giving back everything in double measure.
In Jesus’ precious name, I pray. Amen.
