I believe God has provided us with a very specific promise for the hard
times that are coming. It was given to Abraham and his seed as an oath.
“The oath which He sware to our father Abraham, that He would grant unto
us, that we being delivered out of the hand of our enemies might serve Him
without fear, in holiness and righteousness before Him, all the days of our
life” Luke 1:73-75
God has sworn to deliver us from every enemy,
every fearful thing, so we can serve Him all the days of our lives without
fear.
This oath from God must be the foundation of our trust in every
crisis, calamity and fearful time. Memorize it! Let it be your holy argument
at the throne of grace!
In Psalm 121 David has provided us with one of
the most powerful Holy Spirit arguments ever given to man. The entire psalm
tells us that all our help comes from the Lord alone. Psalm 124 is yet
another holy argument, a specific promise to enable you to build a special
trust.
Right now America is under a "signature judgment" of God.
Signature judgments bear a special mark of God in that they mirror the sins
committed against Him. As these judgments take place before our very eyes,
our only answer is to have Jesus as our shield. Run today to meet Him in the
secret closet of prayer. Let your roots go down deep into Him and know that
He will keep you in all circumstances.
Take hold of the following - memorize it - in readiness for any and all calamities we will
face:
"Unto the upright there ariseth light in the darkness. . . . He
shall not be afraid of evil tidings: his heart is fixed, trusting in the
Lord. His heart shall be established, he shall not be afraid"
Psalm 112:4,
7-8
"And He shall judge the world in righteousness. . . . The Lord also
will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble. And they
that know Thy name will put their trust in Thee: for thou, LORD, hast not
forsaken them that seek Thee" Psalm 9:8-10
