Psalms 91: 1-5, “He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.”

There are times when the activities of daily live could almost overwhelm. There are also times when we have been been dealing with stresses and pain that has worked to cloud the mind. So much so that they cause us to forget who we are in Christ, and to forget the power of the God we serve. But we must remind ourselves.

Take a deep breath and remember God. Take that mental stroll down memory lane. Remember all of the other times God has deliver, brought us out, and made ways when it seemed we were doomed to fail. As the song says” when I think of the goodness of Jesus, and all he has done for me. Oh my soul cries out hallelujah. I praise God for saving me.”

Focus on Psalms 91. Focus on the covering and provisions of that covering God has promised. But we must do our part.

– We must make sure to dwell in that secret place.

– We must confess who he is to us: our refuge and fortress. He is our God!

– We must trust him to be just what he said.

– we must them allow him to have control.

Here is the key:

– We must allow God to work it out.

– We must stand still in active patience, trusting God!

What is active patience?

It is when we, as believers, continue on with the work that God has called us to; while at the same time we leave God to work out our troubles. After we have prayed about them, we then settle in praise and worship over the trouble. We allow praise and worship to be our coping method. God will take care of us, because we trust in him.

So take it easy and wait in patience. Active patience.

Have a blessed Saturday!
