IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL
TOPIC: A Place of Deliverance
Job 28:9 tells us that God puts forth His hand upon the rock and overturns mountains by the roots: It is only as we pray that obstacles are revoked from our path. It is there He makes for us a way of escape and sends His power to bring us out:
“He cutteth out rivers among the rocks; and his eye seeth every precious thing (verse 10).
It is as we seek Him that He binds floods from overflowing over our lives, protecting and keeping us, revealing to us His love and His will, for the thing that is hid, He brings forth to light:
“He bindeth the floods from overflowing, and the thing that is hid bringeth he forth to light” (verse 11).
Prayer is the only place of protection, deliverance, and revelation:
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. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. (Psalm 91:1-7)
Through the prophet Jeremiah, God sent us His royal invitation and said,
“Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not” (Jeremiah 33:3).
Dangers and trials will come our way, but if we obey the command of Proverbs 27:12, we cannot be defeated or overcome. We will prevail, for none who prays ever fails:
“A prudent man foreseeth the evil, and hideth himself; but the simple pass on, and are punished.”
Only as we hide in God—not like Adam who hid from God—can we find continual safety from harm. For God in His great love will warn us of coming dangers, yet He expects us to beware and hide in Him. Only the prudent know how to pray. The foolish neglect God and are punished.
“And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me”(Psalm 50:15).
LET US PRAY
In Jesus Name God will deliver you of every spirit of affliction
