Greetings in the name of Jesus Christ! Here is the word for your meditation and prayer! The title of my message is: " WHERE WOULD I BE HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR THE LORD"
It is pertinent to know and understand that we don't live for ourselves , but for the Lord. And the life we live is the hands of the Lord, who controls everything which pertains to life and godliness. ( Romans 14:7-9, Job 12:10, 2 Peter 1:3-4)
You are alive today because He allowed it to happen by his grace.
The NET Bible in Psalm 124:1-8 says, “If the Lord had not been on our side”— let Israel say this!— if the Lord had not been on our side, when men attacked us, they would have swallowed us alive, when their anger raged against us. The water would have overpowered us; the current would have overwhelmed us. The raging water would have overwhelmed us. The Lord deserves praise, for he did not hand us over as prey to their teeth. We escaped with our lives, like a bird from a hunter’s snare. The snare broke, and we escaped. Our deliverer is the Lord, the Creator of heaven and earth."
It is clear from the above scripture that our protection and our being is in the hands of the Lord. Certainly without God's grace you and me would not be where we are and what we are. ( 1 Corinthians 15:10, 2 Corinthians 12:9-10).
Indeed had it not been for the Lord you would have been consumed and swallowed alive, like Jonah, but the Lord fought all your physical, spiritual and emotional battles, in order to sustain and keep you alive.
Many people have perished and died, but you are here today, because of God's love towards you. Why not give Him all the honour and praise, because He deserves all the glory and adoration.
Stop worrying and think about all the benefits and good things that the Lord has done for you and what he continues to do for you.( Psalm 103:1-8)
Remember, the scripture in Acts 17:28 says, "For in him we live, and move, and have our being; ........." The Lord is our saviour, sustainer, destiny helper and game changer!
Without him you can't do anything! ( John 15:5)
May God richly bless you!
