Today's Verse: Proverbs 3:25-26 (KJV)

Wednesday, June 26, 2013

Be not afraid of sudden fear, neither of the desolation of the wicked, when it cometh. For the Lord shall be thy confidence, and shall keep thy foot from being taken.
— Proverbs 3:25-26 (KJV)

Thoughts on Today's Verse...

What guards your heart from fear? Only one protector is sure and faithful, his name is the Lord. He is our confidence and protector. As Paul said so powerfully long ago, prayer and the Holy Spirit are our assurance of God's deliverance. Either we will be delivered from death to serve God powerfully or we will be delivered through death to share with him in eternity. We will not be snared when our fate and future remain in God's hands!

My Prayer...

Almighty Deliverer, please give me courage to live for you with passion, no matter the cost. I trust in you to deliver me. In Jesus' name I confidently pray. Amen.
