Kept By His Power

October 26, 2023

"Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time." 1 Peter 1:5

It is one thing to go through something when you expected it, but it is challenging to go through something that comes out of the blue. It is the unexpected that can throw us for a loop, because we are unprepared, and feel like we cannot handle the now unexpected. It is then we should understand that we do not have to handle it in our own strength, we can take it to The Lord in prayer and move in His power and strength. The Scripture reminds us that we are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. I encourage you today to remember you do not have to operate in your own power, but you are kept by the power of God through faith. When life comes at you hard and you do not know how you are going to make it, remember you are kept by the power of God through faith. When the storms of life are raging, remember you are kept by the power of God through faith. When you have more bad days than good days, remember you are kept by the power of God through faith. When you have faith in God and believe that what you are facing now is just temporary and God is going to see you through, there is no need to worry because you know that God has you securely in His hands. When you are kept by the power of God through faith, the valley is not as low, and the mountain is not as high because you know God is with you. When you are kept by the power of God through faith, even when you cannot understand where you are, you know who is with you. It's so good to be kept by the power of God through faith, and God is not through with you yet, keep believing and keep trusting and watch God work it out for you. I know I am kept by the power of God through faith, and since He is always keeping me, I have no doubt, "It's My Year To Get My Thing from My God!"

Prayer:

Lord than you for your power that is always at work. Thank you for allowing me to be secure in knowing that I am kept by your power, and that no matter what you love me. I love you Lord. In Jesus Name Amen.
