daily prayer

   Good morning! How are we faithing? We continue with our look at Psalm 91. This by no means is THE definitive study on this Psalm but a lesson on promises and to teach you to read and hear from God. To make you ask questions and to inspire you to dive deeper into the Word. This is such encouragement for our lives! We've already established that while in this body, our flesh, that we are subject to a sinful world. We may or may not endure fleshly pain and whether we do or do not has alot to do with physical, spiritual and mental factors. Some seem to never endure physical maladies, some endure every bug that comes along. Some have mental breakdowns, some retain their light till they die. Some have spiritual battles of monumental proportions and some seem to get it and that's all they need. Right, wrong or indifferent, we all need Jesus. Whatever we deal with, it is impossible without Jesus. If you look at the verses today you see some promises for God's people. Read these, think and do not pull words out to suit what you want. Seek first the kingdom of God.

Psalms 91:7-10

A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not approach you.
You will only look on with your eyes,
And see the recompense of the wicked.
For you have made the LORD, my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place.
No evil will befall you,
Nor will any plague come near your tent.
NAS

Psalms 34:7
The angel of the LORD encamps around those who fear Him,
And rescues them.
NAS

Psalms 71:3
Be Thou to me a rock of habitation, to which I may continually come;
Thou hast given commandment to save me,
For Thou art my rock and my fortress.
NAS

Proverbs 3:6
In all your ways acknowledge Him,
And He will make your paths straight.
NAS

Isaiah 31:1
Woe to those who go down to Egypt for help,
And rely on horses,
And trust in chariots because they are many,
And in horsemen because they are very strong,
But they do not look to the Holy One of Israel, nor seek the LORD!
NAS

Remember Matt Lawson...
 
Heavenly Father,
   Thank you for your Word that reveals and comforts. Help us seek you in everything. Help us understand your protection on our souls. Lord we lift those who suffer at the hands of evil. Help them focus on you and on truth. Grant them wisdom and courage to face anything knowing you love them and are ever present. Lord, keep our troops safe and merciful, in Jesus name, amen
