I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust!” For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper and from the deadly pestilence. Psalm 91:2-3.
Today your LORD (יהוה) God (אלהים) says:
The burden is not on you. I lift and carry your burdens. It is I who deliver you.
You who have been borne by Me from birth, and have been carried by Me from the womb; even to your old age I will be the same, and even to your graying years I will bear you! I have done it, and I will carry you; and I will bear you and I will deliver you. Isaiah 46:3-4.
It is I who heals you, it is I who shields you, it is I who provides for you, it is I who prospers you, it is I who saves you, it is I who blesses you, and it is I who rewards you. And as many and magnificent as My promises are, they are all under the umbrella of deliverance. I deliver you from fear, from sickness, from harm, from evil, from foolish decisions, from sadness and grief, from the pit of destruction, from danger, from deceit, and from poverty.
I deliver the saints, for they have made themselves Mine by covenant. You cannot deliver someone who rejects you, who will not come under the canopy of your protection. I never reject anyone who comes to Me, and I have given you an open door to come by and His Name is Jesus, and He gave His life as a ransom for everyone. Jesus is the way I reach down and deliver you. And Jesus is My Word made tangible so that you can reach out and take hold of My Word in Him even now. My Word is your shepherd, your healer, your comfort, and above all your deliverer. My Word will never reject you, and I have a Word just for you each day, but you can reject My Word. Death and life are in the power of your tongue and you will eat the fruit thereof.
My part is to deliver you from all sin has caused in you and in the beautiful world I made for you, for sin causes things to corrupt and die. Your part is to follow Me, which is to follow My Word (for I am My Word), to believe, to trust, to not fear, to let Me be your God and you My child, My very own.
If you are willing to obey, if you are willing to come to Me, if you are willing to walk with Me, I can and will deliver you. I will change you from a sinner to a saint so that sin has no more power over you. I am able if you are willing.
He has told you, O man, what is good; and what does the LORD require of you but to do justice, to love kindness [chesed (חסד), which is the way I love you, it is comprised of mercy, love, grace, and kindness (compassion), Ephesians 2:4-7], and to walk humbly with your God? Micah 6:8.
I have told you what is good. Do you know what that is?
“Be careful to listen to all these Words which I command you, so that it may be well with you and your sons after you forever, for you will be doing what is good and right in the sight of the LORD your God.” Deuteronomy 12:28.
It is good to give thanks to the LORD and to sing praises to Your name, O Most High; to declare Your lovingkindness in the morning and Your faithfulness by night. Psalm 92:1-2.
Why is it so good for you to give thanks and sing praise to My Name? Because what takes you down and opens you to sickness, defeat, and harm is when you lose your peace and your joy, and you do this by letting the devil steal them from you who are believers. As a saint you have My Spirit in you which produces the fruit of the Spirit in your spirit, which includes peace and joy, and these two are so important to your well-being and living a good life that My Son gave you His peace and His joy as gifts to you when He was about to return to Me having finished the work I gave Him to do to save and deliver you from just such things. Gratitude and praise expressed in song gets your attention on My Name of Covenant promise, such as the LORD your healer and the LORD who sees ahead and provides for you, and of course, the LORD your deliverer and the LORD your peace, so that you have the
Behold, how good and how pleasant it is for brothers to dwell together in unity! Psalm 133:1.
Praise the LORD! For it is good to sing praises to our God; for it is pleasant and praise is becoming. Psalm 147:1.
Who is the man who desires life and loves length of days that he may see good? Keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking deceit. Depart from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. Psalm 34:12-14.
O taste and see that the LORD is good; how blessed is the man who takes refuge in Him! O fear the LORD, you His saints; for to those who fear Him there is no want. The young lions do lack and suffer hunger; but they who seek the LORD shall not be in want of any good thing. Psalm 34:8-10.
Sin will make you a slave to fear and grief, adding pain, toil, and sorrow. My blessing makes you rich and adds no sorrow, toil, or grief with it, but rather pure joy past all understanding. Why? It is your way of deliverance from the earth cursed system that has snared so many.
I will say to the LORD, “My refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust!” For it is He who delivers you from the snare of the trapper and from the deadly pestilence. Psalm 91:2-3.
Jesus told you the two greatest commandments, and I told you to listen to Him. Do you recall what He said?
One of them, a lawyer, asked Him a question, testing Him, “Teacher, which is the great commandment in the Law?” And He said to him, “‘You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.’ This is the great and foremost commandment. The second is like it, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ On these two commandments depend the whole Law and the Prophets.” Matthew22:35-40.
This carries out the Word I gave Micah, to love the way I love. To love chesed. And that is who I am. And with My kind of love is justice with mercy, I punished Jesus in your place to do justice but show you mercy. And that leads to loving your neighbor as I do with justice and mercy. And to do this is walking humbly with Me as your love who shares with you My love, which delivers you from hate and revenge against another, for your righteous vindication comes from Me. Judgment is ultimately Mine for each person for I see the heart and My Word is living and active and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing as far as the division of soul and spirit, of both joints and marrow, and able to judge the thoughts and intentions of the heart. And all is laid bare to Me that is in you for to Me you must render an account. Hebrews 4:12.
If you come to Me and are willing to learn from Me and to obey My Word that is a decision of love and an act of your will, not of your emotions so that you only obey on days you feel good about it. It is a decision to bless Me at ALL times knowing that is the way of releasing My power to deliver you out of all circumstances contrary to My Word.
I will bless the LORD at all times; His praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul will make its boast in the LORD; the humble will hear it and rejoice. O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together. I sought the LORD, and He answered me, and delivered me from all my fears. They looked to Him and were radiant, and their faces will never be ashamed. This poor man cried, and the LORD heard him and saved him out of all his troubles. Psalm 34:1-6.
As a mother hen gathers her chicks under her wings, as a shepherd guards his flock so gather you to Myself and guard you. I am your keeper.
The LORD is your keeper; the LORD is your shade on your right hand. The sun will not smite you by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD will guard and protect you from all evil; He will keep your soul. The LORD will guard your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forever. Psalm 121:5-8.
I want to keep you with Me all the time, but not only with Me, in Me. Like Noah in the ark. I am your refuge. Psalm 91:1-2.
He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of My God, and he will not go out from it anymore; and I will write on him the name of My God, and the name of the city of My God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from My God, and My new name. Revelation 3:12.
I am your inheritance, your exceeding great reward. You are kept by Me in My hand, in My secret place of treasure and delights, the delights of peace and grace. And in that place I give you a Word of comfort when you are afraid and weary that revives you to new heights of joy.
Remember the Word to Your servant, in which You have made me hope. This is my comfort in my affliction, that Your Word has revived me. Psalm 119:49-50.
And as you read My Word it will highlight off the page into your heart and you know you found the Word that will rouse you.
And here is your Word from Me for today:
“For the mountains may be removed and the hills may shake, but My lovingkindness will not be removed from you, and My covenant of peace will not be shaken,” says the LORD who has compassion on you. Isaiah 54:10.
And that is the line that I am highlighting off the page to you: I have compassion on you. You are not alone, I am not deaf to your cries, I see your tears, and I know your troubled thoughts but all that is about to change into joy, a joy no one can take from you. And that Word is to be read and understood in conjunction with Psalm 116.
I love the LORD, because He hears my voice and my supplications. Because He has inclined His ear to me, therefore I shall call upon Him as long as I live. The cords of death encompassed me
And the terrors of Sheol came upon me; I found distress and sorrow. Then I called upon the name of the LORD, “O LORD, I beseech You, save my life!” Gracious is the LORD, and righteous; Yes, our God is compassionate. The LORD preserves the simple; I was brought low, and He saved me. Return to your rest, O my soul, for the LORD has dealt bountifully with you. For You have rescued my soul from death, my eyes from tears, my feet from stumbling. I shall walk before the LORD in the land of the living. Psalm 116:1-9.
I keep you by My Word.
I love you. Let Me be your deliverer and your keeper and your comforter as well. I have compassion on you.
When Jesus went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and He felt compassion for them because they were like sheep without a shepherd; and He began to teach them many things. Mark 6:34.
