Word of the Day
Beloved, all the beauty surrounding you was made as a gift, a habitation in which to dwell and experience My splendid love for you. All things were created to provide for the sustaining of life physically and spiritually.
In light of this, the circumstances you experience which bring consternation to your soul are but drops in the sea of My capabilities. I am your strong tower and mountain of strength in the day of trouble, in the midst of your sea (Proverbs 18:10, Psalms 61:3). Minor setbacks do not dismay Me in any way, even though sometimes they seem larger than life to you. They are wonderful tools in My hand to teach you, if you will let Me.
Daily lessons of life hold the keys of your tomorrows. Be patient My love and endure with the knowledge of My unrelenting heart of love toward you. It is never moved from its position as guardian and protector of your heart and soul.
I use each circumstance, both good and bad, as opportunities to instruct, encourage, and build you into one who can do likewise for another. I use them to enlarge your faith and remove the enemy’s plan to discourage you from the way I have chosen for you to walk by enabling you to overcome. This builds an overcoming spirit in you.
At the same time you experience My grace and mercy in any given situation, you will see My salvation in your circumstances. A two-fold purpose is accomplished, building humility of heart and confidence at the same time. You are put on the right path and our relationship grows deeper as you see Me moving on your behalf. This deepens the knowledge of My love for you in your own heart. Run into Me and be glad for today is a day of growth. Receive all I have offered and be multiplied in the lives of others. You have My heart, My covering and My protection. Rise and walk in confidence knowing I have your back.
“The name of the Lord is a strong tower; the [consistently] righteous man [upright and in right standing with God] runs into it and is safe, high [above evil] and strong” (Proverbs 18:10 Amplified)
Prayer
Lord, Your beauty surrounds me and covers me with such a splendid love. You have provided all I need to sustain me physically, emotionally, and spiritually. My life and heart are in Your hands. I run into the strong tower of Your might and strength where I am saved from my enemies. I embrace the lesions of life with confidence, for You do valiantly on my behalf.
Help me to walk with the fullness of Your mercy and grace in every aspect of my life. Leave nothing undone in Me. Make all things new as I learn to walk in humility and confidence. My heart is becoming a deep well of realized love and grace. I am growing in You. I give You my whole heart, life and walk with the knowledge that You have my back. Amen
