THE BLESSINGS OF OBEDIENCE (3)

TIMES OF REFRESHING ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL www.thefountspring.org

DATE: FRIDAY, 27 OCTOBER 2023

Again, beloved, obedience is a shield of divine protection. Yes, this is true. It conveys the idea that when we align our lives with God’s Will and follow His commands, we find refuge, security, and shelter under His loving care.  Just as a loving parent watch over their child, God watches over those who are obedient to His word.

Bottom of FormSCRIPTURE: “He will cover you with his feathers, and under his wings, you will find refuge; his faithfulness will be your shield and rampart.” — Psalm 91:4 (NIV)

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY: Obedience to God’s commands acts as a shield against harm. When we follow God’s guidance and live according to His principles, we are less likely to fall into the snares and pitfalls of sin and unwise choices. It provides protection from spiritual attacks. In a world filled with spiritual battles and temptations, our obedience to God’s Word and His guidance helps us stand firm against the schemes of the enemy. It is a spiritual shield that guards our hearts and minds, (Eph. 6:16). Stay Refreshed!

NOTE THIS: Obedience offers preservation in times of trial and adversity. When we face life’s challenges, our obedience to God’s commands sustains us and keeps us on the path of righteousness, ensuring that we emerge from trials stronger and more resilient.

RESPONSIBILITY: So, beloved, as we submit to God’s Will and obey His commands, let us ask Him for the grace to continue to walk in obedience, trusting in His promise to safeguard us on our spiritual journey.

PRAYER:  O GOD, as we keep obeying Your commands and following Your guidance, may we find shelter under the shield of Your divine protection, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

PROPHETIC WORD: May the Lord help us and protect us, shield us, and strengthen us in all circumstances, in the name of Jesus’ Amen!

BIBLE TEXTS: Psalm 91:4, Eph 6:16, James 1:2
