The textual content message got here in. My buddy requested, “Kelly, are you able to pray a protecting protecting prayer over me?” I had no thought what a “Protecting Masking Prayer” was, however I did perceive she was in a dangerous state of affairs. I knew she wanted God’s assist so no weapon shaped in opposition to her might prosper. I knew she wanted a sister to hope for God’s immense protecting energy to maintain her, to observe over her, and to protect her in all her methods. With all this circling via my head, not understanding find out how to meet her expectations, I turned to the Lord and sought the perfect scripture to hope. My coronary heart landed on Psalm 91, a powerhouse Psalm. When prayed, it’s mighty to work.

In my buddy’s case, I didn’t have time to hope the entire Psalm over her, so I targeted on Psalm 91:1:

“Whoever dwells within the shelter of the Most Excessive
will relaxation within the shadow of the Almighty.^[^a^]

I prayed that my buddy would draw into God Himself. I prayed that she would relaxation below His shelter, the final word protecting protecting for any storm. Once I prayed, I hoped she would know that below God’s shelter, there may be impenetrable security. It’s the mightiest forcefield round. It’s larger than the Iron Dome. It’s Stronger than the perfect iron-built fortress.

Generally, we could not really feel like God’s shelter is secure, although. Simply because we’re in His security doesn’t imply we don’t see a pure battle round us. We may even see bullets flying. We could hear individuals talking phrases in opposition to us. We could hear sounds of gunfire that fireside throughout us. We should not be discouraged about that. Once we come into the shelter of the Most Excessive, we exhale worry and belief Him to guard, even within the face of pure warfare.

We stroll by religion and never by sight. We don’t should see to consider. What number of battles has God delivered you thru? What number of occasions has He fed you if you had been hungry? What number of cases has He answered prayers that you simply prayed years in the past that, at the moment, you thought had been inconceivable? Come into the shelter of the Most Excessive and know that you’re secure, even when it feels you aren’t. He’ll maintain you. In that area and place, you possibly can lastly relaxation that thoughts.

I obtain this for myself. The reality is, generally, my coronary heart feels faint. There’s a battle that appears to haven’t any finish. I requested the Lord this morning, “God, how do I truly defend my coronary heart so it doesn’t develop faint?” Though I didn’t hear the reply, I knew the response. If God had been to audibly communicate, it could sound one thing like this, “Kelly, you must belief me, if you come into Me as a Shelter. An indication of you doing this – is you at relaxation.”

For a few of us, our hearts want relaxation. God has that for you, too, as you consider in His protecting protecting over you. He is not going to fail you. He is not going to forsake you. He’s Protector, and He’s good at His job.

Let’s Pray:

Father, I ask so that you can defend me. I ask You to maintain me in all my methods. Give me energy to dwell below your shelter, the shelter of the Most Excessive, and to relaxation within the shadow of the Almighty. You’re my secure refuge. You’re my hope. You’re my greatest safety. Hold me in all my methods. Thanks that you’re the Shepherd and Keeper of my soul. I’m so grateful. In Jesus’ Title. Amen.
