Praise
The Lord; Praise God Our Savior!
For
Each Day He Carries Us In His Arms.
Our
God Is A God Who Saves!
Scripture
Psalm
68
Observation
Don't
think for a minute that we are going through this crisis alone. Psalm
68:19 reminds me that I am not alone and this verse lets me know
exactly who is taking care of me. That's right, my God ... my
Heavenly Father, is carrying me in His arms. “Our God is a God who
saves! The Sovereign Lord rescues us from death.”
I
was listening to my good friend Pastor Saul Mateos last night via
Facebook as he shared a message to his church family at First Baptist
Church of Puebla in the city of Puebla, Mexico.
His
message was about Moses. He said that Moses was rescued by Pharaoh’s
daughter so that later Moses could rescue the Hebrew
children out of slavery. He was rescued so that he could rescue. You
and I (if you are a follower of Jesus Christ) have been rescued so we
can rescue others!
Look
around. Who needs our help? People need to be encouraged now more
than ever.
We
are all getting weary. We all need a gentle reminder that our
Heavenly Father is carrying us in His arms! He's got this!
Galatians
6:9-10
9 So
let’s not get tired of doing what is good. At just the right time
we will reap a harvest of blessing if we don’t give up.
10 Therefore,
whenever we have the opportunity, we should do good to
everyone—especially to those in the family of faith.
Hebrews
10:24
24 Let
us think of ways to motivate one another to acts of love and good
works.
Application
I
will look for opportunities to do good. I will thank the Lord for
carrying me in His arms through this crisis.
How
about you?
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, everyday is a new day. This is a day that You have made! I
will rejoice and be glad in it! Show me how to live out this day in a
way that pleases You. Don't let me waste it! Thank You for carrying
me in Your arms through this difficult time. I am safe in the shelter
of Your wings. Thank You for all of Your promises that remind me just
how much You love me and care for me.
I
pray for any person who may be reading this blog today who is
stressed out over this situation. Comfort them, Lord. Encourage them.
Send people their way who can brighten up their day.
I
pray for Pastor Saul Mateos and his wife Raquel. Bless them, Lord.
Encourage them today.
