Psa 91:1, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.”
Last week we saw that how God protects those who take refuge under His wings. Today we will look that God not only protects but also cares and meets all their needs who take refuge under His wings.
We read about Ruth in the Bible who was Naomi’s daughter-in-law and was Moabites. After her husband’s death when her mother-in-law, Naomi decided to go to her own country, Ruth followed her. Ruth did not know what laid before her if she followed Naomi. There was absolutely no future for her, there was no hope of getting married again. Her doomed future was crystal clear before her if she followed Naomi. And Naomi warned her of it and begged her to return to her family so that she could have better future.
But Ruth was determined to follow Naomi and her God. We could see floods of blessings coming in her life because she took refuge under the wings of almighty God. We read in Ruth 2:11-12, “And Boaz answered and said to her, "It has been fully reported to me, all that you have done for your mother-in-law since the death of your husband, and how you have left your father and your mother and the land of your birth, and have come to a people whom you did not know before. The LORD repay your work, and a full reward be given you by the LORD God of Israel, under whose wings you have come for refuge."
The same God who rewarded Ruth with all His good gifts and blessings is able to reward us and bless our lives, if we are determined to walk in His holy ways. He is ready to open flood gates of heaven and pour His choicest blessings in our lives.
Later Ruth whose future was shut on her face, in a very miraculous way she got married, had children and the most amazing thing is that she became the great grandmother of David through whoes lineage Jesus came in this world.
That’s what God does to His children. He is a good God and He wants to reward His children with all His blessings and goodness. For the very reason He came in this world to take away our sins and to give us hope and a future.
My friend, today, you might have lost all your hopes in your life. You may be in deep trouble and may be thinking that, “my future is over”. But if your future is in the hands of Lord Jesus Christ, He will make it a blessed one. Your future is not over! Come to Jesus and ask His help in your life. Make a determined step to walk with Him. He will help you.
LORD surrounds His people
By Sherly Isaac
Psa 125:1-2, “Those who trust in the LORD Are like Mount Zion, Which cannot be moved, but abides forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the LORD surrounds His people From this time forth and forever."
This wonderful promise is for those who love Him and trust Him. His protection and His blessings are for His children. My friend, if you trust the Lord Jesus Christ in your life, you are not an ordinary person but God Himself will surround you like high mountains and protect you. He will make everything sure that enemy may never be able to destroy you or even come closer to you.
I remember once we were in family prayer. God told us that "He surrounds us as high mountains and no harm could come near our dwelling. He also told us that, if enemy could cross over Him, or pierce through Him then only he could come near us otherwise it is impossible for enemy to come near us."
When we got this word from the Lord, we had no idea that what terrible trials laid ahead of us in the coming years. Oh, well, though we walked through the valley of tears and the shadow of death yet enemy could never defeat us instead we gave black eye to devil. At the end we emerged victoriously because Al-mighty God was with us.
He never allowed us to fall in the trap of enemy and pits he created for us.
The same God is ready to bless every person who trusts in Him and walks in His ways. Let the trials come, let the wind blow, let the storm rage but it cannot destroy your lives if God has surrounded you and standing as high mountains.
When I was in my primary class, the teacher told us in my Geography class that “because our country India is surrounded by high mountains in the north it is not easy for enemy to come and attack us. There is an advantage of having mountains surrounding us.”
Yes, it is a privilege and it is a blessing that God Himself surrounds His people like high mountains and protects from all danger and harms.
More than that there is a danger lay ahead of every person whose sins are not forgiven. If you die without getting forgiveness of your sins, hell is waiting for you. But if you repent from your sins and ask Jesus to come into your life, He will forgive and forget all your sins and will give you eternal life. He will give you privilege to enter into heaven. Would you ask Jesus to come into your life? Would you take this eternal security in your life?
