FREE SECURITY AND PROTECTION: MUST READ



















Men and women traverse land and seas, combing the nooks and crannies of the country in search of protection and security. What they are looking for in wrong places is offered free of charge by God. 



God is our city of refuge. He is our anchor on the stormy sea of life. Because God owns us, He would protect us from any attack. We are shown how He protects His own in Psalm 27:1 and 5, “The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? The LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock.” God will hide you in His secret place during the time of trouble. He has other ways in which He can protect us. These are found in Psalm 91:9-13, “Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; there shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear you up in their hands, lest thou dash they foot against a stone. "Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.” 

One of the ways that God protects His own from evil in by giving orders to His angels to take care of them. When Daniel was thrown into the lions’ den and the king came the following morning and cried unto Daniel to know whether his God had, in fact, protected him, is answer is recorded in Daniel 6:21-22, “Then said Daniel unto the king, O king live for ever. My God hath sent his angel, and hath shut the lion’s mouths, that they have not hurt me forasmuch as before him innocence was found in me; and also before thee, O king, have I done no hurt.” If the mouth of the lions that are against you are not shut, the angel assigned to you will get a query. There is the story of Peter in Acts 12:5-11. He was put in prison to be killed the following day. The children of God were praying and, all of a sudden, an angel came into the prison house to free him. God sent the guards to sleep. When the day of your deliverance comes, your enemy will fall asleep. Peter did not have the keys to the prison house, yet he was brought out. When God is with you, all locked doors will begin to open.



Psalm 91:2 - “I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress; my God; in him will I trust.
