THE SAFE PLACE


















S.E.E.D. For Today___Safety

Scripture "God is our safe place and our strength. He is always our help when we are in trouble." Psalms 46:1 New Life Version

In light of all that is going on in our world God is the most dependable person we know. Murder, and violence plague our city's and nothing seems to be safe anymore. When everything seems to be falling apart God is our safety, our refuge from the storms of life. He doesn't protect us in order to pamper us, He shelter's us so He can strengthen us to go back to life with it's duties and dangers. Trouble describes people who are in tight places in a corner and unable to get out, but we are not to be afraid. The earth may change and things will be in utter chaos, but in the Lord we have safety. Though everything around us and in us seems to be restless, God is in control. God is our safe place, in His will, in His hands He got the whole world, He formed it, shaped it, created it, and man contaminated it with his disobedience but the Love of God never fails. He is the place to take cover in the uncertainties of life. "So we will not be be afraid, even if the earth is shaken and the mountains fall into the center of the sea, and even of its waters go wild with storm and the mountains shake with action." God is our safe place.

Example Safety the state of being safe; freedom from the occurrence or risk of injury, danger, or loss.

Exercise Read Psalms 46:1-11 Journal and talk to God. Pray the prayer of safety for your family, for our nation, for our world. The violent attacks could come to our back door but we must not be afraid, Jesus told the Father to preserve us from the evil one. But we must come to God and continually live in obedience unto Him in righteousness.

Devotion Lord my prayer today please help us. I pray that You will preserve, protect us from all the chaos in the world. God I pray for peace. I pray that You will continue to be a very present help in the time of trouble. Lord look over us all, keep your angels camped about everyone. God guard and protect our senses so that misfortunes may not overcame us, Thank You for being The Safe Place in Jesus Name Amen.

Bursting Out Of It!

S.E.E.D. For Today:  Scripture: "Is this not the the fast which I have chosen: Loosen the bonds of wickedness." ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Explanation: There should be the right motive when we fast. The people of God in Isaiah observed but there was no change in them. When fasting we do not want to look at it as a religious ritual, but a means to transformation. The fruit of repentance ought to be evident in relationship with one another and our neighbor. If we fast and persist in arrogance, stubbornness, fighting and strife then we are only doing this out of routine. Exercise: Prayer is important to experience the grace and power of God when fasting. Without the consistency of prayer we will not see breakthrough. God is challenging us to do the fast He has chosen, the first means of business is releasing or loosing the bonds of wickedness. Whatever besets itself and entangles you again under the same slave system of missing the mark with God has to let you go. I challenge you

UN-DO!

S.E.E.D. For Today: Scripture: "Undo The Heavy Burdens" ( Isaiah 58:6 ) Example: There was a great deal of injustice in the land and with the rich exploiting the poor and the rulers using their authority only to make themselves richer. It was a conflict between truth and lies, just like in our land today. The people of God were no different in operating under the same system as this. But God called them out and wanted them to understand that their fasting was in vain if they did not undo the heavy burden they placed on others while still outwardly devoting themselves to religion or as they thought to God. Exercise: Let's invite the Holy Spirit to solve problems and aid us in lifting loads and overcome barriers that keep us and our loved ones from walking joyfully in the Lord. In self-denying love and care for others, let's undo any heavy burden or untie any yoke that we may have placed upon friends, family, associates or even employees. Devotion: Lord toda
