OUR SURE DELIVERER



READ: PSALM 124:6-8
“Surely, He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence” (Psalm 91:3). Our God is a mighty Deliverer. In the above passage, He gives us the assurance that we shall be delivered. When God says ‘surely’, it means you do not have to doubt or worry anymore because His word is forever settled in Heaven (Psalm 119:89). Once He has spoken, the case is closed. When He says, ‘surely, it will be well with you,’ nobody can change it. Steadfastly hold on to whatever he has assured you of in His word.
As long as you dwell in the secret place of the Most High, and abide under the shadow of the Almighty, surely, all shall be well. It does not matter how hard the devil is pushing against you presently. It also does not matter what people say or think about you; it shall be well with you. Surely, you will succeed. Surely, you shall not die, no matter how close you are to death. The fowler is Satan. He is the hidden enemy who uses snares and baits to lure unsuspecting believers into his traps. 1 Timothy 6:9 says Satan can use wealth to lure you into his trap of destruction. Those who will be easily preyed upon include the careless, prayerless and all who cannot wait to enter their promised land in God’s time. There is an appointed time for your elevation. There is a time for you to have the answer to that persistent need. Your time will surely come. Your time of fruitfulness shall not pass you by. Wait patiently for it. If you cannot wait, you may fall victim of Satan’s traps. Be careful.
anyone taken in Satan’s traps is first overwhelmed with fear. When he attempts to escape, he will discover he cannot easily do so. Then feelings of helplessness, hopelessness and sorrow begin to set in. May you never fall into the trap of the devil. If you are already taken in one of his several traps, there is good news for you. Our mighty Deliverer will deliver you. Repent of the sin that led you into the trap and expose it to someone who can guide you spiritually. Shun all evil opportunities and satanic options. Have you become pregnant after falling into fornication? Go ahead and have the baby. Abortion is a worse pit. Abondonment of baby at a dump site is a greater evil. If you truly repent and keep the child, God will deliver you. He will make a way for you.
MEMORIZE: PSALM 91:3 –Surely, He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
