Security

October Psalm 136:1

Psalm 136:1

When we think about the abundance of God, we often think of the many blessings He bestows upon us. But God’s abundance is so much more than just material gifts. It’s also about His enduring, unfailing love. A love not bound by time or circumstances, but unchanging, unending, and unconditional. God’s love persists through every trial, every joy, and every challenge in our lives. It remains constant in the face of our imperfections and mistakes. And assures us that, no matter what we go through, we can find solace and security in His love. This eternal love is a source of hope, a wellspring of comfort, and a promise that we are cherished, valued, and never alone. It’s a love that extends beyond our earthly existence, reaching into eternity, reminding us that, in God’s eyes, we are eternally beloved. How can we not accept the invitation to offer our heartfelt gratitude to the God of heaven, whose steadfast love is a constant and limitless source of abundance in our lives.

September 23rd – Psalm 139:1

Psalm 139:1

O Lord, you have searched me and known me.”

There’s nothing better than having a close, intimate, relationship with God. Because He knows us better than we know ourselves. He searches and knows our hearts, thoughts, and ways. God knows every desire, every need, every hurt, and every joy. So we can trust in His deep care, understanding, and guidance in our lives. As our Creator, with His own hands, God made each of us amazingly and miraculously. (Ps. 139:13-14) That means our Father doesn’t just have a superficial awareness of us, but He intimately knows every aspect of our beings. He knows the thoughts we harbor, the words we speak, the emotions we feel, and every detail of our lives. Moreover, because of the loving and personal connection we have with the Lord, God knows us not as mere numbers or faces in a crowd but by our individual names. In a world where we often feel lost or unseen, we can find reassurance us that we are profoundly known and cherished by our Heavenly Father. This gives us a great sense of comfort, security, and significance in His divine presence.

September 13th – Isaiah 25:4

Isaiah 25:4

For you have been a refuge to the poor, a refuge to the needy in their distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat.”

The storms of life are the unavoidable challenges, hardships, and trials that come our way. And just as storms in nature can be fierce and unpredictable, life’s storms can be equally devastating. That’s why at the very first rumble of thunder, we need to run to God in search of shelter. For He is our dependable refuge. A safe haven shielding us from the raging elements. Turning to God in times of trouble, shows a belief in His unwavering love, sovereignty, and wisdom. And faith in His promise to never leave or forsake us. His presence offers refuge from the turbulence around us. And when we rest in His strength, we find comfort, guidance, and a source of inner peace. The kind of peace that empowers us to weather the storms with resilience and hope. And one that reminds us that even in the darkest of times, we are never alone. God is there welcoming us into His rest. He is our mighty Fortress of peace, light, and security in the midst of life’s storms.

January 19th – Job 11:18

Job 11:18

The world today is in great need of hope. Everywhere we turn, we are inundated by news of tragedy, horror, and violence. As in the days of Noah, (Luke 17:26-27) people are openly sinning against God with no fear of the consequences. And although Christians around the world are sounding the alarm of the Lord’s soon return, the world mocks the message and the messengers. Yet as the world spins out of control, and people panic over the darkened days, we as followers of Christ have all we need to lead lives of encouragement and joy. For as Job 11:18 reminds us, “You will be secure, because there is hope; you will look about you and take your rest in safety.” One day very soon God will pour out His judgements on this wicked and rebellious world. Yet we can rejoice because those who put their faith in Christ, will never taste the bitterness of His wrath.
