He protects us

 But the Lord is faithful, and he will strengthen you and protect you from the evil one. ~2 Thessalonians 3:3

God is so good.  He is faithful and true. How awesome is it to know that God is protecting us from the evil one.  The enemy stays busy, but our God stays ready,  He strengthens us and gives us what we need to fight the battles. He gives us the victory in Jesus name.  That is a blessing.  Unmerited grace and a a display of His love for us.

I don'y know what battle you may be facing, but I encourage you to stay with God.  Trust His love for you and know that He stands ready to defend.  You are not alone.  Draw upon His strength and know that God has you.  

I pray, as Paul prayed,  that the Lord direct your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s perseverance ( 2 Thessalonians 3:5).  When our hearts are directed towards God's love, there is peace.  When we we think of his love we are able to endure and persevere no matter what our circumstances may look like.  We begin to see with our spiritual eyes and have some pep in our step because God protects us. The enemy does not stand a chance so hold on.  

Lord, thank You for your amazing love.  Thank You for faithfulness and protection.  Thank You for your strength and grace.  Help us to focus on these truths when the water seems to creep above our head.  Help us to claim the victory in You.  Forgive us for our doubts.  In Jesus name.  Amen
