God
will deliver you from all your troubles (see Psalm 34:19, 2 Timothy 4:18). But
deliverance is actually not the best that God has for you because it implies
that you are in trouble. God’s best for you is the place where no trouble or
evil can touch you. And with His help, you will come to that place because the
Bible says, “He shall deliver you in six troubles, yes, in seven no evil shall
touch you.”
This
does not mean that God will only deliver you six times. It just means that as
you keep believing God’s promises of protection, after some time, you will come
to a place where no evil will touch you! So when trouble comes, God does not
want you to be discouraged. He wants you to know that it is only the devil
trying to steal His Word from your heart. The devil is afraid of leaving God’s
Word in your heart for even one second because he knows that it will lead you
to a place where no evil will touch you. That is why he comes immediately to
steal God’s Word from your heart.
He
will do so by telling you, “Look, your child is sick. Where is God now?” You
must not respond by saying, “Well, I guess it does not work. Maybe God’s
promises of deliverance are not for my family.”
No,
you must continue to stand on God’s promises. Say, “The previous flu my child
had did not stay. God promises me deliverance and He did deliver my child then.
So I will live life believing His promises of deliverance because His Word is
true. And I will come to a place where no evil can touch me and my family!”
Beloved, even if in the
next moment you happen to stub your toe against something hard, don’t be
discouraged and wonder why God did not protect your toe. The devil had meant to
cause greater harm to you, but thank God that he could not because God is
watching over you. And keep standing on His promises until you come to the
place where no evil will touch you! (Article & Picture; courtesy of Joseph
