My child, consider the privilege of dwelling in My secret place! Here, the things which threaten you (seemingly from within you or around you) all break down upon the shield which is Me.

It is here that you find real security; it is here that you can, at times of great difficulty, surrender to My enveloping love. As you do so, you can mentally let everything else just slip away! It is here, in My secret place, that you absorb the strength you need to go on.

It is here that you receive enlightenment — or the patience you need until new light is given to you. Surrounded by Me, My children experience the true hope which is only to be found in me.

Psalm 91:1-3, 10-13

1 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.

2 I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.

10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.

11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.

12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.

13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.

My child, you must know that everything which I allow in your life is something for which you can thank Me. You are blessed to know this. Only My Spirit can reveal it to you.

Because My purposes are always for your good, you can take full advantage of the opportunities in each earthly situation. Upon all your circumstances — past, present and future — My wisdom is brought to bear, wisdom springing from My loving concern for you.

It is your great privilege to know that everything which life brings to those who put their trust in Me is right and is blessed by Myself. You can, therefore, go on thanking Me all the time.

Thought for the day: If God is for you, who can stand against you?

Song for the day: I just want to be where You are, dwelling daily in Your presence….
