GLORIOUS GRACE! - 83

Job 5:19 - He will deliver you from six troubles; in seven no harm shall touch you.

This poetic language does not mean that God will only deliver you six times. It just means that as you keep believing God’s promises of protection, after some time, you will come to a place where no evil will touch you!

God will deliver you from all your troubles. (Psalm 34:19, 2Timothy 4:18) But deliverance is actually not the best that God has for you because it implies that you are already in some trouble, from where you will be delivered. God’s best for you is the place where no trouble or evil can touch you. And with His help, you will come to that place.

So when trouble comes, God does not want you to be discouraged. The devil is afraid of seeing God’s promises in your heart for even one second because he knows that it will lead you to a place where no evil will touch you. That is why he plants negative thoughts in your heart.

He will do so by telling you, “Look, your child is sick. Where is God now?” You must not respond by saying, “Well, I guess it does not work. Maybe God’s promises of deliverance are not for my family.”

No, you must continue to stand on God’s promises. Say, “The previous flu my child had did not stay. God promises me deliverance and He did deliver my child then. So I will live life believing His promises of deliverance because His Word is true. And I will come to a place where no evil can touch me and my family!”

Thought for the day!
Keep believing God’s promises of protection and come to a place where no evil will touch you!
