Today God says:
"My everlasting arms are beneath you".
He promises me:
"The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and He shall thrust out the enemy from before you". (Deut. 33:27)
My response to the word:
God is my eternal refuge. His everlasting arms hold me up. He promises to cast the enemy out of my way. With this understanding of who God is I am able to go forth in great peace and confidence, because He will hold me up and fight for me. I know that He will help me to do whatever He wants me to do.
My prayer:
Father God, I need your help every moment of every day. Thank you for being so directly involved in every aspect of my life.
Today's scriptures:
"Your arm is mighty. Your hand is strong. Your right hand is lifted high". (Ps. 89:13 GW) "Those who trust the Lord are like Mount Zion, which can never be shaken. It remains firm forever". (Ps. 125:1 GW) "The people ransomed by the Lord will return, They will come to Zion singing with joy". (Isa. 41:11 GW)
Quote for today:
Nor can we fall below the arms of God, however low it be we fall. (William Penn)
