David wrote: "The angel of the LORD encamps round about those who fear Him, and delivers them (Psalm 34:7)."
David had many times when he was afraid. His life was one of fight and flight. He also wrote: "What times I am afraid, I will trust in the LORD.
He knew He could trust Me because I promised him that I would always be with Him because he trusted in Me and He feared Me by having an awesome respect for My power and an obedient heart to obey Me.
PSALM 34:7
I am the "Nevertheless God." Some time take time to underline the many times in both the New Testament and Old Testament that the word, "nevertheless," appears.
David wrote: "My lovingkindness will I not utterly take from him, nor suffer My faithfulness to fail (Psalm 89:33).
Peter wrote: "Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwells righteousness (2 Peter 3:13)." Most every "nevertheless" reveals My mercy and lovingkindness."
PSALM 89:33; 2 PETER 3:13
I want you to remember that I have already spoiled principalities and powers, and I have made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.
After an army won a great victory, they often had a parade after their victory. The prisoners they had captured were bound in chains and walked at the end of this triumphant parade.
I want you to have that picture in your mind. I have already won the battle when I died on the cross. The victory is yours now. You now can use the Sword of the Spirit, My Word, to appropriate what I have done.
COLOSSIANS 2:15
When I walked on earth I said that if a kingdom or a house was divided that it could not stand. The spirit of anti-Christ has the assignment to cause division in homes, kingdoms, and nations.
This spirit is at work right now in your beloved country and all over the world. Bind that spirit of anti-Christ and curse its fruit of division.
Pray for oneness of mind and heart to be established first in your homes. Nations begin with families. So many families do not even have both parents. Many children are fatherless. Pray against the strategy of the enemy which is to divide and conquer.
MARK 3:24-25
So many all over the world are fleeing to safe places because of the many wars that are now happening in the world. Many of the refugees do not know that I am their only safe place.
Pray for these refugees and the laborers who are praying for them and those who are sharing My good news with them.
When you are overwhelmed by the darkness that has entered your own nation, focus your thoughts on Me. I am your refuge and strength in these troubled times.
PSALM 59:16
Many people believe that people are born good. They look at their precious new born babies, and they cannot imagine that such an innocent baby could ever be rebellious.
Ever since Adam and Eve ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, they could choose to do good or evil. That sinful, rebellious nature was passed on to Adam and Eve's first born son and then to us.
Infants are very self-centered and rebellious. They will remain that way until they receive My nature within their hearts. I was the only human born good because I was God in the flesh and My Father is always good.
ISAIAH 7:14-15
You have seen the gatherings of two political parties. There are many gatherings of people who are against My Jewish brothers and sisters. Those gatherings are spreading throughout the world.
Many of those who have gathered together against Me are under the seduction of the anti-Christ spirit that is very active in your day. There were many gathered against Me when I walked on earth.
I said to them, "He who is not with Me is against Me; and he who gathers not with Me scatters abroad. Pray against the wicked spirit of anti-Christ that is spreading and causing many to turn against Me.
MATTHEW 12:30
