Lord….My life is in your hands. (Psalm 31:14-15) CEV
I love to hear testimonies of how God has moved in the lives of others. Telling others what God has done for you is very Powerful! It is how we overcome the enemy …by the blood of the Lamb and the Word of our testimonies.(Revelation 12:11)
Terry Schafer knew what she wanted to buy for her husband for Christmas, but it was more than she could afford. So a generous storeowner agreed to gift wrap it and let her take it, with the agreement that she make weekly payments. When she thanked him and he replied, “Oh it’s nothing,” that storekeeper didn’t realize the significance of his kind gesture. On October 4th, patrolman David Schafer was pursuing an armed robber when he was shot in the stomach. When an officer went to tell his wife Terry, she was glad she hadn’t waited for Christmas to give her husband his gift. And she was doubly grateful for the storekeeper who’d agree to come to terms, otherwise David would be dead. Instead he was hospitalized, not with a gunshot wound but a bruise–because he’d been wearing the new bulletproof vest she’d given him earlier that week.
When the timing of an event is more remarkable than the event itself, some people call it luck, fate, coincidence or karma. (They are the ones who think birth, death, interruptions and delays are a matter of chance., not divine design.) But not David; he wrote: ” I come to you, Lord, for protection…..Do as you…..promised….Protect me from hidden traps and keep me safe. You are
faithful….I trust you…and claim you as my God. My life is in your hands….you store up blessings for all who honor you. You are their shelter from harmful plots…The Lord protects the faithful.” (Psalm 31:1-23 CEV)
Wherever you go today, remember that God’s protective hand is upon you!!
