Choose God's Secret Place

“Choose God’s Secret Place”

…He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.  I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in Him will I trust….

Psalm 91: 1-2

I can’t think of a better time than now to have read this scripture.  In life we all go through a period when everywhere we turn there is SOMETHING not going right.  During these down times we get so caught up in everything that is going wrong rather than looking at all of our blessings. 

In Psalm 91 we are encouraged to allow God to completely take control of the situation.  Maybe you have reached a point in your life where you want to trust God but you feel as if you really don’t know how.  In order for us to give Him complete control and “allow” ourselves to trust Him, we have to “know” Him.  Know that He is Almighty, your Creator, your Father, and your Comforter.  God is all knowing! That situation you are going through, He already knew about it before it happened. He is just waiting for you to cry out to Him, “Father I’m giving complete and total control to you. Take this situation from me because I can no longer handle this without you.“  Once you reach this point and allow God to carry you through your trials you will begin to see your faith build even stronger in Him. 

Will you choose trust or torment?  Will you decide to dwell in the “secret place” with Him?  Go back and read Psalm 91 and know that there IS a way out of your troubles, anxiety, worry, hurt, pain, depression, sickness and despair.  Then turn to Psalm 121 for your confirmation of that He is your help and all you need.

...I will lift up mine eyes unto the hills, from whence cometh my help.  My help cometh from the Lord, which made heaven and earth…

Psalm 121: 1-2

As you go through your daily activities, always know that you are not alone.  God is with you.  It doesn’t matter if it is 4 a.m. or 4 p.m., He is still available.  Our Father never takes a vacation.  God neither slumbers nor sleeps… Trust in Him…

Be blessed…
