GOD'S PROTECTION

Lawlessness and evil has been unleashed in this world. Look
around you, it is everywhere. There is no escape from it, except
to call on the Lord. He has promised that He will watch over us
and protect us from all this evil. We can fully trust Him to take
care of us. There is no human or other entity that can be trusted,
that will be faithful, or that is even capable of keeping us from
harm. Only our God, Him only.

Read 2 Thessalonians 3:3

"But the Lord is faithful, and He will strengthen and protect
you from the evil one." (NIV)

"But the Lord is faithful, who shall stablish you, and keep you
from evil." (KJV)

CASTING YOUR CARES

We can literally throw our worries and concerns on the Lord with
full confidence that He will protect us so that we do not fall under
the pressure of them. He is ever faithful to those who have a heart
of obedience and desire to please Him. As long as we live in this
world, it is unlikely we will be free of trials and sufferings, but we
have total access to be free of the worry and concern that accompany
them.

Read Psalm 55:22

"Cast your cares on the Lord and He will sustain you; he will never
let the righteous fall." (NIV)

"Cast thy burden upon the LORD, and he shall sustain thee: he shall
never suffer the righteous to be moved." (KJV)

WHO IS IN CONTROL?

All things belong to the Lord. Those who remember this will remain
humble at all times. It is not by our own minds or hands that we have
accumulated our possessions and achievements. It is only by the
grace of God. He will lift us up if we are actively aware of Who is in
control.

Read Isaiah 66:2

"'Has not my hand made all these things, and so they came into being?'
declares the Lord. 'This is the one I esteem; he who is humble and contrite in spirit, and trembles at my word.'" (NIV)

"'For all those things hath mine hand made and all those things have been,' saith the LORD: 'but to this man will I look even to him that is poor and of a contrite spirit and trembleth at my word.'" (KJV)
