"I have set the Lord always before me; Because He is at my right hand I shall not be moved."
Psalm 16:18
Last night, I have seen it again; not being moved. While walking in my dark hallway from the living room toward the bedroom.
Previously, I put up a wooden gate in the doorway, I forgot it was there. So, I walked full force into the gate. Hitting my head on the concrete floor. I was sure my head was bloody and my leg would have been broken. Because I hit this gate so very hard.
But nothing, I had a large bump and a scraped up chin. The bump actually went down quickly with an icepack on it. This should have ended up in a trip to the hospital with a broken leg. But I felt very strongly, that I was under the protection of God. And I thanked Him for it.
Bad things happen to all of us, whether we are saved by Grace or not. We live in a world that has been fallen from God's Grace because of the disobedience by Adam and Eve!
But one of the benefits of God, being under His Lordship, is protection. Today, I am not hurting a lot. Just sore. But this could very well ended up worse.
During my years of walking with the Lord, I have seen His protection on my life many times. But there were times, when I doubted and suffered the consequences.
To sum up the headline of my life: It is filled with God's faithfulness. Whether I was aware of it or not.
My prayer today: Father help us to see; Help us to hear; So that we can stand on your promise of protection. and all other promises and not doubting. In Jesus' Name; AMEN.
