The Troubles of the Time
Psalm 34:4-7 Seek the Lord, He does hear our cry. And He will deliver us from the fears of the troubles we face. The Lord will save us from our troubles. How blessed we are to know that the angel of the Lord encamps all around those who fear Him, and delivers them.
Those are my words, however I believe it is what the Lord has said in Psalm 34.
We are facing a new winter storm that could again bring 5 to 12 inches of snow. We have just gotten past a major storm over the weekend that brought up 25 inches in some areas. The troubled times that come from storms like this are upon us. And as I searched the scriptures the Lord spoke to me from Psalm 34. I would encourage you to read the entire psalm. It has great words like, He delivers, He is good, we will not lack anything, we will see good things, the Lord hears our prayers, the Lord is near, He redeems. Wonderful reminder words during these troubled times. His Words, He will deliver, He is all around us, out of all our troubled times, the Lord redeems the soul of His servants and if we trust in Him we will not face condemnation. Thank You Lord Jesus.
Those are just a few of my highlights from the Psalm. As we face troubled times, turn all the fears that come over to the Lord Jesus Christ. A form of trusting Him is praising Him. Psalm 34:1 "I will bless the Lord at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth." Praise Him when we win and praise Him when we lose. Wonderful words from the movie Facing the Giants. The troubled times may be like a giant in your life, but remember the Lord Jesus Christ is the same yesterday today and forever. He removed the fear of facing a giant with David and he was blessed with victory. We have that victory in Jesus.
No matter what the storm brings we have victory in Jesus let's all just praise Him during those troubled times, seek Him, He hears us and will deliver you and I from all our fears.
Be safe this week and my prayer is this storm be defeated in Jesus name amen.
