SECURITY

September 28 

I have set Yahweh continually before me; because He is at my right hand, I will not be shaken. Psalm 16:8

Almost everyone today has a smart phone that is constantly before them. We keep our phones at our right hand, ready to be used whenever we have a need. We can buy an app that enables us to keep track of the location of every family member. Some of us even have the security system in our homes connected to our phones. I’m thankful for the many different tools that God has blessed us with in this day and age.  

But with great tools, it can be easy to forget, or at least overlook the fact that Yahweh is always with us. He truly is at our right hand at all times. His battery never runs out. He never gets lost or broken. And He is the only constant source of true security we can have. Sometimes He orchestrates for us to go through trials and difficulties when it seems as if He has abandoned us. There are times when our physical security is compromised and trouble comes our way. But even in the midst of the adversity, He has promised to continue to be with us; strengthening us each step of the way. When we set Him before us, while we are going through the crisis, He promises to provide us a peace and comfort that only He can give, so that we are not shaken.  

May Yahweh continue to strength us to trust in Him, as we receive the stamina we desperately need to walk the path He has prepared for us. May you experience the security of not being shaken today, as you continue to set Yahweh before you.
