Four Verses To Remind You That God Is Your Safe Place
Our God saves.
I think we need to ponder that for a moment. What better way to do that than by going to God’s word. The Bible makes God character so clear, but it’s easy for us to forget. Below are four character traits of our Heavenly Father and verses to back them up:
Our God saves.
“Even though we were dead because of our sins, He gave us life when He raised Christ from the dead. (It is only by God’s grace that you have been saved!)” – Ephesians 2:5
He is a safe place.
“This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; He is my God, and I trust him.” – Psalm 91:2
He is shelter.
“The name of the Lord is a strong fortress; the godly run to Him and are safe.” – Proverbs 18:10
He has everything we need right there in His name alone.
“For ‘Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.'” – Romans 10:13
What is it that you feel tender about right now? What is the spot that is causing a little bit of angst, causing you to feel like you want to collapse?
Talk that out loud with God.
Take time, right now, to say, “Lord, I need you to step into this area that seems so weak for me and bring Your strength because You are a safe place, my Savior.”
He hears every one of your prayers, and He loves you so deeply. Remember these truths as you await His response.
