THE 23rd OF AUGUST
THE LORD IS OUR LIGHT, STRENGTH AND SALVATION
The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? – Psalms 27:1
Is this the truth in your life? If it is not yet, it can be. All it takes is to believe that Jesus is the Son of God, He died for your sins, repent and ask Him to forgive you and become Your Lord and Savior. (You may read more in the articles from the “Are you right with God today?” section).
As long as Jesus is our Lord and Savior, we should life free from fear of anyone or anything and walk in His light. Because we belong to God, we are in the safest place possible. He is our Lord Almighty, there is nothing stronger than Him and He desires the best for us. We are called to have intimacy with God, so that we get to know Him fully so that we may follow His lead and counsel for our every step. Whenever we follow God’s guidance nothing can touch us. He always gives us the best directions and He equips us ahead of time for everything He asks us to do. So, as long as we do not count on our own strength but on God’s, there is nothing we should be afraid of!
SUGGESTED PRAYER
I praise and honor You, Lord God Almighty, because You are my Lord, You are my strength and protection. Please help me to always put You first, give You all the glory and respect You deserve for who You are and for what You constantly do for me. As long as I remain in You, I know I am protected because You remain in me. There is nothing that can cross the hedge of protection You set around me without Your permission. Thank You with all my heart for all Your help and care in seeing me through all the hardships of life, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
