God Will Rescue Us

Through our many trials and tribulations, God is there, and He will rescue us. He will not abandon His people. He will cover us with His hand and lead us to safety. His protection will be on those who love Him.

Because you have made the Lord your dwelling place—
the Most High, who is my refuge—
no evil shall be allowed to befall you,
no plague come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways.

(Psalms 91:9-11)

As these days turn dark and our vision diminishes, let us remember the Lord, for He is good. He will not let us suffer more than we can bear. This life is but a vapor and our true reward is in the salvation the Lord promised through His son Christ Jesus.

Let us be glad and cheerful knowing God has a place prepared for us. Our comfort is in His Word. His Word is a light unto our feet, a provision for our mind and a treasure for our heart. He clothes us in security and provides us with what we need. He will give us the strength to overcome our fears.

We will count on the Lord’s wisdom as a standard against plague. His mercy will not fail us. His power will penetrate the very marrow of our being, providing us the encouragement we so truly seek.

In all things, fear not, for God will rescue us.

The Lord Is Our Salvation

How wonderful a truth is it to know the Lord will never leave us nor forsake us. He so loved us that He gave His only Son Jesus so that we might have salvation. How great is God to have given us hope in a time of distress.

I love you, O LORD, my strength.
The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer,
my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge,
my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold.
I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised,
and I am saved from my enemies.

(Psalms 18:1-3)

Bless the Lord, O my soul, for He is good. His mercy is on us always. He delivers us from evil, blesses us when all seems lost and gives us of His abundance so that we are without want. His grace upon our lives will remain forever.

God’s deliverance for us will never fail. He pours into us His Spirit, lifts us from our knees and restores our soul. His promises are sure, His joy will live in us always, and His love for us will never end. O great are you, Lord!

Therefore, let not this world’s trials discourage you. For we are God’s and no one can take away the salvation promised to us and held in Heaven for us. Until the last day, stand firm in the face of adversity. For the Lord is our salvation.

Persevere Until the End

Whatever trial we may be facing, whatever tribulation we may be fighting and whatever storm we may be suffering, God will rescue us. His mercy will never fail. His spirit will never leave us. He will always be there for us. Our hope is in Jesus.

“But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.”

(Jude 1:20-21)

Believe that Jesus is the Son of God and your salvation is sure. For no sin is greater than God’s forgiveness. God the Father’s deposit of the Holy Spirit in us is our guarantee of that salvation, through Christ our Lord’s sacrifice.

Stand firm in the sight of turmoil. Steady yourself and wait for God’s mercy to fall upon your life. No one can take away your hope in Christ. For that hope is what will carry us through the fire and mold us into what we will be.

Believe God and He will not fail us. His peace is with us now, through the Holy Spirit who lives in us. We can do all things through Jesus. He is the One who strengthens us. He will lead us away from the fiery grave. Persevere until the end.

Walk in the Light

Brethren, do as Jesus did, doing all that our Heavenly Father taught us through His Son. For through Him, we have life and our salvation is in Him, whom God has given, so that we also will one day stand before God and receive our eternal reward.

“If we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin.”

(1 John 1:7)

Jesus is all we need. God will forgive us if we believe Jesus is His Son. If we walk in His ways, doing good to all, blessing those who curse us, giving to the poor, showing mercy to those who spite us, then we indeed will know Him.

If we do not do as Jesus did, as He had taught His disciples, then we sin and darkness is in us. If we say we have not sinned, then we are liars and the truth is not in us. For the truth and the light is in those who do what Jesus did.

Therefore, brethren, serve God, and glorify Him in all your works. Feed the hungry, give to those who are lacking, look after the widows and provide for the orphans of the church. As Jesus walked in the light, let us walk in the light also.
