God Is In Control
Louie HillenPsalm 46:7-11
7 The "LORD of hosts iswith us; The God of Jacob isour refuge. Selah
8 Come, behold the works of the Lord, Who has made desolations in the earth.
9 "He makes wars cease to the end of the earth; He breaks the bow and cuts the spear in two; He burns the chariot in the fire.
10 Be Still, and know that I am God; I will be exalted among nations,I will be exalted in the earth.
11 The Lord of hosts is with us; The God of Jacob is our refuge. Selah
God is in control of ALL things. This scripture not only reminds me that God is always with me and us, but that God is also watching those who refuse to acknowledge God as Lord. He is also warning them of His sovereignty over both the heavens and the earth.
In the prisons that I go into, evil is everywhere and it is a constant struggle and battle for my Christian brothers and sisters to do what is right in God's eyes. I will continue to tell them that God's eyes are not only on them my brothers and sisters, but His eyes are also on the unjust and the evil that lives in that place. God is sovereign even in midst of it all, so they can continue to fight the good fight and live according to His Word.
Heavenly Father thank you that we have hope in this world where there are many uncertainties for the future. We are reminded that you are still in control. Thank you for reminding me to be still so that I can read your word. I am encouraged to continue what you have called me to do. Let my heart grow more for those in prison not only in Hawaii but on the mainland too. I will go anywhere to encourage people in the prisons to read your word daily so that You our Father will be glorified. I do all of this for you Lord Jesus. I pray for many more salvations to take place in every prison near and far. Please send more people to help me with this mission field. I am thankful for the ones already ministering with me. I thank you and praise you in Jesus name I pray AMEN.
