Stronghold of Jesus

“The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.”  Psalm 9:9 (NIV)

When the circumstances of life are battering against you like a ship on rough seas, Jesus is your stronghold. You can find a shelter in Him that is secure, safe, and peaceful despite the storms that rage on the outside. You can come to Him wet and worn out, you can come to Him tired and without hope, you can come to Him however your trials have battered, but by all means, come to Jesus.

When the waters of life are smooth and relaxing, don’t neglect communing with your Savior through prayer and Bible study. Walking with the Lord in the good times will put you close to Him when times of troubles arise.

Let’s pray today that those who we know and love will find shelter in the stronghold of Jesus Christ.
