December 7                                                              The Power of God’s Word
My God is my rock, my fortress and my Savior; my God is my rock in whom I find protection. He is my shield, the power that saves me and my place of safety. He is my refuge, my Savior, the one who saves me from violence. I called on the Lord who is worthy of praise and He saved me from my enemies.
-2 Samuel 22:3-4(NLT)
A SAFE PLACE
A poem and essay by ILMA
Where do you run, when someone chases you?
Who can deliver you from ungodly views?
Who will be your fortress to protect you from evil?
How do you hide from the tactics of the devil?
God is my rock, my fortress and my Savior
He will not allow me to be consumed and devoured
He is my refuge, the one who saves me from violence
He is worthy of praise, omnipotence and magnificence.
What do you do when you feel overwhelmed with burdens? Do you seek comfort from a friend or family? Do you go to a favorite spot to clear your mind? The bible tells us that God is our rock and our fortress. He is the shield that will protect us and keep us safe especially when in trouble. Run to the throne for refuge
PRAYER
Lord, let me only seek your refuge and no one else.
REFLECTION
Why is it important to seek God’s help first than any other human being?
