If you say, “The Lord is my refuge,” and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you, no disaster will come near your tent.
Psalm 91:9–10
God will never let you down.
Is it always God’s will to heal? Yes. Is it always God’s will to protect? Yes. Is it always God’s will to bless? Yes. Is it always God’s will to save someone? Yes.
So…how come it doesn’t always happen? Why do we lose loved ones? Why do situations sometimes go badly even after we’ve prayed?
I can’t tell you why in every case, but we have a choice to make. We can’t stop believing God’s Word just because our circumstances don’t always match up with what it says. We need to choose to believe.
This planet has its share of trouble and sometimes bad things happen, but our God will never let us down. If something doesn’t work out the way you had hoped, you may not know why…but you can be sure it isn’t because God wanted it to go badly. God is good all the time!
No matter what, keep claiming God’s Word. Psalm 91:9 begins with the words, “If you say.” When you believe and claim God’s promises out loud over your life, it has a powerful effect. Not only does your faith grow because you’re influencing the deepest beliefs of your heart, which Proverbs 4:23 says are creating your life, but when you speak God’s Word, angels listen.
