DIVINE ARRANGEMENT


READ: PSALM 125:1-5
God has made provision for every need of man. His divine power matches all known and unknown circumstances of life. He can deal with any situation which confronts his children. He can deal with elements of nature, unseen forces, storms of life, sudden destruction, financial embarrassment and anything that constitutes a threat to your physical and spiritual well-being. What about His dealing with enemies? What if the enemies have already caught us? According to Psalm 25:15, the Bible says, “My eyes are ever toward the LORD, for He shall pluck my feet out of the net.” If the enemies have already caught you in a net, if you cry unto God, He can pluck your feet out of the net and restore you. He can begin a new life of revival for you and you will suddenly discover another hunger for the Lord. According to 2 Thessalonians 3:3, the Bible says,”But the Lord is faithful, who will establish you and guard you from the evil one. ” The Lord is faithful and we should rely on Him. He is faithful in keeping and establishing us. God has no joy in our backsliding. He has no joy if the enemy takes you away from where He has put you. Even as the enemy is struggling to move your feet, the Almighty God is also determined to establish you. If you are a backslider and you are wondering whether God will bring you back, if you call on Him today, He is faithful to restore and establish you. Not only will He establish you, He can prevent the enemy from ever getting you again. Psalm 125:1-2 says, “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.” As mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about those who put their trust in Him, forever. Those of us who put our trust in Him will be like Mount Zion that cannot be removed. God Himself will surround us forever and we will become indestructible.
MEMORIZE: 1 THESSALONIANS 3:3 –That no one should be shaken by these afflictions; for you yourselves know that we are appointed to this.
