The Future Looming

In life we get opportunities to spend time with family and friends. There can be amazing moments in our paths, like the birth of a child. And there can be moments when what seems to be coming is an unbelievably difficult challenge. The challenge may be routine to some, but to us it seems, well, a little scary. In times like these it is good to know who is with us.

Hebrews 13:5 Let your conversation be without covetousness; and be content with such things as ye have: for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.
6 So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

We have a God that has always been, will always be, and is at this very moment on our side.

Psalms 121:1 I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.
2 My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth.
3 He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4 Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5 The Lord is thy keeper: the Lord is thy shade upon thy right hand.

In every moment of life, our God is with us, to protect, defend, and to deliver us from all evil. He longs to raise us up. Today, if you have something looming in your future, look up, for the God Most High is watching over you. Call to Him and He will come to your rescue.

It’s just what He does. It’s just who He is. He alone is God.

Prayer
Father, we exalt You as the Most High King. Lift Your people up today, Lord. Raise our spirits and our hearts. Let us be encouraged to trust in You. Show Yourself strong on our behalf. Bring Your reign. Be our King. In Jesus’ (Yeshua’s) name. Amen.
