You are my hiding place; you will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance. Psalm 32:7-8
There is no growth without change, no change without loss, and no loss without pain. The Lord allows trials in our lives to strengthen us and to exercise our faith in Him. We must trust Him only when the waves of the storm come. Do not panic, do not react, but instead be still in the knowing that He is our God and Father and nothing will harm us. When challenges come, I immediately rest in my assurance of obedience for I know the Lord is allowing it to happen to either teach me or bless me. But in all times I know He is going to protect me. I pray all the time to not allow any weapon formed against me to prosper and you should to. (Isaiah 54:17) I am sealed up and protected by the blood of the Lamb. I do not live in fear. When we completely surrender ourselves to Him, we gain a sense of freedom from this world and its efforts to harm us. We gain an assurance that nothing can hurt us. So do not be anxious when life throws you a curve ball, but instead, praise the Lord, rejoice in Him and pray, pray, pray. He is all you need.
