In the World
“the Lord will watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” Psalm 121:8 (NIV)
The salvation of the Lord goes with you where ever you go, whether you are in a church sanctuary or in the world. You are not anymore saved being in a Christian environment than you are being in a secular workplace. We may feel more comfortable in conducive environments where our faith is not challenged, but our witness is greater in the world.
The Spirit of God does not abandon you to wait outside while you enter a workplace, a sports arena, or even an immoral establishment. God’s watchful eye is always on His saints and they are never without His presence.
Let’s pray today that we go through the world in full confidence of our Lord’s power to keep us close to Him.
