Psalm 91:14-15 ~ “Because you love me, I will rescue you. I will protect you because you know my name. When you call to me, I will answer you. I will be with you when you are in trouble. I will save you and honor you.” (GWT)
My son used to be so afraid to go to bed at night. He had a nightly ritual of lining up every stuffed animal he had along side the bed for “protection”. I thought it was cute at first, but once I realized how terrified he really was, I decided to give him something better than the stuffed animals. I had him memorize this verse. I shared with him that because He is God’s child, and he loved Him that God will rescue him if the sharks attacked him in his dreams. And because he knows the Lord and acknowledges Him, when he calls on God, He would answer. When the dreams got too scary, he didn’t have to worry because God was right there with him. And no matter how many sharks there were, God would save him and honor him. Today, I want to remind you of the same thing. He will rescue you, He’ll protect you, He’ll be with you, and He’ll save you. There's no need to worry, no need to fear...God has your back!
