Protection

Read Exodus 34.18-24

“.. I will drive out nations before you and enlarge your territory ..” (Ex.34.24)

Going up to Jerusalem involved going away from home. No home insurance would be needed, though – the LORD Himself would watch over their homes, even as He’d long since undertaken to protect and prosper His people. Trust Him to be that for you.

‘Those who honour Me I will honour’ (1 Sam.2.30); in what ways have you experienced that truth yourself?

How do Paul’s words in Phil.4.6 help you handle the anxieties you have?

Prayer: Thank You, Lord, that Your faithfulness is a shield and rampart for Your people [Ps.91.4]: help me today to step out in obedient faith and do Your will.
