PROMISE #222 - AUGUST 10
Promise #222:
I will be your security and a safe place for your children.
Proverbs 14:26 (WEB)
In the fear of Yahweh is a secure fortress,
and he will be a refuge for his children.
The person who reveres the Lord is confident that God will be a place of safety for them and refuge for their children. God is our secure fortress. Nothing can penetrate His walls. We are safe and secure in the center of His heart. While this is good news for us, it is also a promise for our children. In a world that seems to always be on shaky ground, this is a promise that we can rely on.
For those of us who have children (and grandchildren), this is a promise that we can claim for them, too! Our own three children are adults now and are dealing with the pressures of this world just like everybody else. While sometimes I wish I could protect them like I used to when they were young, I am encouraged to think that God is still their safe place, no matter their struggles.
May each of us claim this promise for ourselves and our loved ones today!
