Text: Psalm 124:1-8
Author: Pastor Adedeji Fadehan
Exhortation:
Welive in a world of fierce contest. The kingdom of darkness keeps strategizing and re-strategizing daily. They are the ones Christ refers to as the thief whose mission is to kill, steal and destroy; the sons and daughters of light being their major target- John 10:10.
Thanks be to God who neither sleeps nor slumbers. As children of light, we have Christ as our shield, our protective covering from the heat of the day and the terrors of the night.
When the enemy attacks God’s people with the intention of swallowing them alive; when the anger of the evil ones flare against them, he raises a protective standard against the evil ones. He does not allow the raging waters of darkness; the floods and torrents of the foe to sweep over them.
This is why you make Jesus Christ your Ally. You must love what he loves and hate what he hates. Two cannot walk together except they be agreed- Amos 3:3. You must love righteousness and hate iniquity. Through obedience and a prayerful life, you come under the secret place of the Most High.
Then you can be sure he will not allow you to be torn by the teeth of the wicked beasts of the world. Like a bird, he will make you constantly escape from the snares of the fowlers. He will be your everlasting source of help and you will never be put to shame in Jesus name.
Prayer Nugget: Father Lord, because you are my trusted ally, please, fight for me while I hold my peace in Jesus name.
Bible in One Year: Joshua 23-24
