Psalm 91 God's Provincial Protection

Good morning Abba, Good morning Jesus, Good morning Holy Spirit,

A thousand may fall at your side and ten thousand at your right hand, but it shall not approach you...

 He will call upon Me, and I will answer him; I will be with him in trouble;

 I will rescue him and honor him."

Psalm 91: 7, 15

Good morning America, Happy Independence Day!

Many devotionals are made readied for this day in our history.  They look for the right scripture.  They ponder and write words that they hope will provide inspiration to all.  That desire, all hope for all in our nation, is how we became an Independent Republic with a governing democracy.

"Of the fifty-six men who signed this document, the final to pass away was Charles Carroll, who died at the age of 95. Before his passing, New York City asked him to inscribe his final thoughts on a copy of the Declaration. On it he wrote that he was "Grateful to Almighty God for the blessings which, through Jesus Christ Our Lord, He has conferred on my beloved country in her emancipation." Significantly, this Founding Father, in looking back over what had occurred as a result of the Declaration, wanted to specifically thank Jesus for what had happened with America." David Barton

"The two signers of the Declaration to precede Charles Carroll in death were John Adams and Thomas Jefferson. Both had been on the committee to draft the Declaration, and both died on the 50th anniversary of that document - on July 4, 1826." David Barton

Psalm 91 is a promise of Divine protection.  It is sometimes known as the Soldier's Psalm.  General Washington prayed it, quoted it, and spoke it over his command every day. "He was the recipient, a witness, to God's supernatural protection so much so that he became known as the "soldier who could not die."  The Founder's Bible: The Origin of the Dream of Freedom, David Barton

Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.

Psalm 89:15

Today we enjoy the abundant life that our Founding Fathers and every soldier for the last 238 years stood for.  Our Lord Jesus, also suffered and stood on the Word of God.  Jesus promised:

The thief does not come except to steal, and to kill, and to destroy.  

I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly.

John 10:10

The Bible teaches that God gives us abundant mercy (Numbers 14:18), abundant provision (2 Chronicles 11:23), abundant kindness (Nehemiah 9:17), abundant pardon (Isaiah 55:7) and abundant peace (Psalm 37:11). Journey: Your Daily Adventure with God by David Jeremiah

In today's world, truth is a mask for hidden agendas and personal gain.  Our National independence can only be safe-guarded by our recognition and acceptance of our spiritual dependence... pray often!  Standing united with God's truth is our calling for our children, family, friends, and co-workers.  You have heard the "Freedom is not Free," so what can we do to stay free... we pray, we stand, and remain in His word.

I am the vine, you are the branches.

 He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit;

 for without Me you can do nothing.

John 15:5
