Delivered My Soul From Death!

Delivered My Soul From Death!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who say, “You have delivered my soul from death.” In Jesus’ name, amen.

How would you like to be able to defeat death?

In Psalm 116:6-9 (ESV) the psalmist not only says, “He (the Lord) saved me,” he goes on to talk about his soul being delivered from death. This is good news.

“The Lord preserves the simple;
when I was brought low, he saved me.
Return, O my soul, to your rest;
for the Lord has dealt bountifully with you.

For you have delivered my soul from death,
my eyes from tears,
my feet from stumbling;
I will walk before the Lord
in the land of the living.”

John 3:16 (ESV) is a verse about being saved from death.

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life.”

What have you done to deserve eternal life? Accept Jesus Christ as Lord and savior. Be saved.

Walk in Wisdom!

Walk in Wisdom!

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who make an effort to walk in wisdom. In Jesus’ name, amen.

Those who are interested in wilderness survival know how important a compass can be. One thing about using a compass is to trust the compass and not instincts about direction. Mountaineering students are taught to trust the compass because instincts can be wrong.

Proverbs 28:26 (ESV) is about a person who trusts their own mind instead of trusting God.

“Whoever trusts in his own mind is a fool,
but he who walks in wisdom will be delivered.”

Like the mountaineer who trusts his or her compass, be a person who walks in wisdom trusting God.

Do not rely on your own mind.

Cried to the Lord?

Cried to the Lord?

Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for anyone who has cried to the Lord in their trouble, and he delivered them from their distress.

Verses 6, 13, 19, and 28 of Psalm 107 (ESV) are the same:

“Then they cried to the Lord in their trouble,
and he delivered them from their distress.”

Turn on the nightly news, and it seems everywhere there is trouble. How comforting to know the Lord delivers from distress. Are you experiencing trouble? Ask God to walk with you through the trial.

God Has Delivered?

God Has Delivered?

Dear Lord, I ask for wisdom for those God has delivered. In Jesus’ name, amen.

God hears the prayers of the faithful. It is affirming when God answers prayer positively. Yet, he can answer prayer with “yes;” “no;” and “wait.” There are a lot of other gradations in between.

Psalm 34:4-7 (ESV) is about when God answers prayers and delivers:

“I sought the Lord, and he answered me
and delivered me from all my fears.
Those who look to him are radiant,
and their faces shall never be ashamed.
This poor man cried, and the Lord heard him
and saved him out of all his troubles.
The angel of the Lord encamps
around those who fear him, and delivers them.”

Ask the God of the universe to intervene in your life. Pray. Now.
