livingbyfaithinChrist.com: Jesus Cares For You, Every Single day!

Whenever we are faced with trials and tribulations. We think that the

Lord has forgotten us and forsaken us. But the Lord is so close to us,

closer than the air we breathe. He's right beside us, caring and watching

over us every single moment. ....He who keeps you will not slumber.

Behold, He who keeps Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.

Psalm121: 4

And also in Isaiah 49:14-16, we read about God's love and care as that

of a loving Mother,

“Can a woman forget her sucking child, that she should not have

compassion on the son of her womb? Yea, they may forget, yet will

I not forget thee".

He promises, "For the mountains shall depart and the hills be removed,

But My kindness shall not depart from you..." The Lord is very

mindful of those who totally trust him like a child in times of trouble.

But it's so hard during trying and testing times that things around get

stormy and the wave's hit us hard. Fear and doubt seem to drown us

and we are surrounded by thick clouds of darkness and the weight of

the mountain pressing down on us. Our heart is so weighed down by a

lot of pain and we're stricken with fear, despair and hopelessness.

Sometimes life can just knock the wind out of our lungs and we find it

so difficult to lift our eyes to the hills from where our help comes from.

There are times when we are in a lot of agony and not knowing what to

do and tears stream down our face with no one beside to comfort us.

Sometimes we have to walk through the valley of darkness all alone

totally devastated and sinking in misery and a lot more than words can

just express! Yeah, we might have seen our share of troubles but just

remember that the Lord who was standing with Shadrach, Meshach

and Abednego in the fire is also standing with you to protect and

safeguard you from all evil.

“When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; And through

the rivers, they shall not overflow you. When you walk through the fire,

you shall not be burned, Nor shall the flame scorch you.” Isaiah 43:2.

He will cover you under the shadow of his hand and hide you under the

covert of his wings. However hard it may seem, just remember your

present situation can't drown you. We have an unchanging and an

unfailing God. Nothing is impossible with our Lord Jesus.

Isaiah 63:7-9 says “In all their affliction, He was afflicted, and the

angel of His presence saved them; in His love and in His pity He

redeemed them; He lifted them up and carried them all the

days of old.” (Isaiah 63:9)

The Lord is listening to our cry. He will wipe all our tears and

answer us speedily. This Poor man cried and the Lord heard him

and saved him out of all his troubles. Keep holding on to his

unfailing promises. Keep meditating on his word and lift up

your wings of Prayer and Praise and watch your Giants fall.

The Lord will be a wall of fire and protect us from all evil.

When the enemy comes in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord

will lift up a standard against

him. Sometimes we may wonder, Is God listening to my prayer?

I have sinned and gone too far away from him. Let nothing prevent

you from coming to his Throne of Grace. Come as you are, He will

take you into his fold and give you deliverance from all your

problems and comfort you.

He healeth the broken in heart, and bindeth up all their wounds.

Psalm 147:3

Dear Child of God, The Lord is preserving you as the apple of his

eye you need not be afraid of anything. As you fill in the Holy Spirit,

the anointing of the Holy Spirit will break every yoke and set you free,

You will experience a great deliverance. You will keep him in perfect

peace whose mind is stayed on You Because he trusts in You. May the

Lord comfort you and bless you with His peace, shield you with his

loving-kindness and tender mercies.

1. I’ll never be discouraged when dismal clouds surround,

And life is full of toil and pain,

Who hath let the clouds, sheds forth His rays around,
