Hurting? Heart Broken? Discouraged?

Psalms 91

¹ He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

² I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

³ Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

⁴ He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.

⁵ Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;

⁶ Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.

⁷ A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.

⁸ Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.

⁹ Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;

¹⁰ There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

¹¹ For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

¹² They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

¹³ Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

¹⁴ Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.

¹⁵ He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.

¹⁶ With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

 

The passage of scripture that you just read is a passage that a very dear friend recommend I read. I have been through this passage 2 sometimes 3 times a day for the past 10 days and plan to cont reading daily for the rest of December.

 

The reason is if you are facing, in or coming out of a trial this passage is beyond amazing, it's beyond helpful, it's just PERFECT!

 

If you read through it and really read it not just skim it or read it like a speed reader, but really sit down asking the Lord to show you something, reading it. You will see so much in how no matter what the attack, no matter what the situation, God is ALWAYS there for you! He's your refuge, he gives the angels charge over you, he sets his love upon you, He'll deliver you from trouble. Plus so much more!!

 

Friend in my last blog post I said I wasn't posting because I couldn't be an encouragement. Well, let me encourage you now....

 

1. If people turn against you, which they will. God WILL NEVER FORSAKE YOU!

2. If people spread false accusation against you, which they sometimes do. GOD KNOWS YOUR HEART AND HE KNOWS YOU!!!

3. If people break your heart, and they will. GOD IS THERE TO MEND IT!

4. If people are human like we are and do that which is hurtful, painful, sometimes destroying or placing a stumbling block in front you. GOD WILL CARRY YOU THROUGH WHATEVER HE HAS BROUGHT YOU THROUGH!!!

 

So friend, I'm writing this even though I'm sitting here with a broken heart and hurting I have read this passage often in the last 10 days and yes I'm not healed yet but I know the Lord is healing me through his word and through friends who care and love us.

 

If you are going through anything and would like me to pray for you don't hesitate to comment and I WILL pray for you!
