GOD IS OUR VERY PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE!

GOD IS OUR VERY PRESENT HELP IN TROUBLE!

Father, praise your holy name for this beautifully blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for your agape love.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they also praise you through your Son, Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. With such, they understand that they are always guarded as you adorn them with your armor and shield, breastplate of righteousness, and helmet of salvation.

When they are weak, you allow them to become strong. When they are fearful, you allow them to be fearless. When they are doubtful, they remember that no weapons formed against them will prosper. 

Father, help all to understand that you are always present and will carry them through their darkest experiences. Help all to understand that they must depend upon you through all situations, and understanding that, with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper.

“God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore we will not fear, though the earth be removed and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea. Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.
Psalm 46:1-3

ARMOR AND SHIELD OF PROTECTION

Father, praise your holy name for another blessed morning in Christ. I’m grateful for another opportunity to get it right.

Father, as many have awakened and have begun their morning journey, they pause to give you all the honor, praise, and glory. They know that today was not promised; therefore, they push through their adversities, knowing that, with you, no weapons formed against them will prosper.

Moreover, help them to understand that putting you first is essential to making it in this world. Help them to understand that being prepared is essential, for there will be troubled and unbearable days; however, your love will continue to guide, direct, and protect them through their darkest experiences. 

“Wherefore take unto you the whole armor of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand. Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth and having on the breastplate of righteousness, and your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace; above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. Praying always with all prayer and supplication in the Spirit, and watching thereunto with all perseverance and supplication for all saints.” Ephesians 6:13-18
