GOD’S PROTECTION. 2
PSALM 91:3-6
Introduction
When all things are going well, we tend to rest and be at peace
When your dreams seem to be coming to pass, it’s easy to remain hopeful and excited
When it looks like everything is going according to plan, no sign of the enemy or threats in sight, we tend to feel comfortable
But there are times when all of a sudden everything changes around you, and it seems like it portrays a picture completely opposite of our dreams, expectation and it looks like nothing will work, and our lives are threatened
When that time comes, we all need protection, we need someone who can bring stability, someone who can be reliable
Last week we spoke of God as a refuge and a fortress
Surely: Without fail because He cannot fail to do what He promised
5 Things God will do as He protects you: for those who dwell in the secret place
He will save you from the Fowler’s snare
He will save you from the deadly pestilence
Deadly/ noisome: havvah : which means a rushing calamity
One that sweeps everything before it
No hidden danger or deadly diseases will be able to harm you
He will cover you with His feathers
Not only does He protect us: In His protection we also experience His care
Under His wings you will find refuge
You will experience His love, protection, strength and gracious presence
In the shadow of His wings we are protected from everything that would work contrary to His purpose in our lives
Because He is our help, we can sing in the shadow of His wings
Paul and Silas, keep your midnight song
Daniel/ Shadrack , Meshach and Abednigo: keep your faith
His faithfulness will be your shield and your rampart
His faithfulness protects you as a person, and protects those around you, you are defended
Because God is faithful, I will trust Him to always fulfill His promises
The faithful love of God never ends, our unfaithfulness does not change His faithfulness
Because His mercies never come to an end
His mercies begin afresh every morning
God’s faithfulness is immeasurable: Psalm 36:5
“Your love O Lord reaches to the heavens, your faithfulness to the skies
Closing
Even through calamity He remains faithful
Our faith in God as our protector will carry us through all that we face
When there is a snare, keep your eyes on the Lord
Psalm25:15 “ My eyes are ever on the Lord, for only He will release my feet from the snare
Listen this morning, let your eyes be continuously on the Lord till He shows His mercy
He is God and remains in control whether it is day, or it is night
We therefore have continuous protection
Trust Him with your situation
