God says, “I will save those who love me and will protect those who acknowledge me as Lord.” Ps 91:14

Acknowledge His Lordship

The tendency of mankind, from the fall of the first family has become, trying to be on his own and being independent of God. Unless we are surrounded by the protection by the Almighty God, we become victims of the enemy who steals away our full life and joy. As David sings in this hymn, God never ceases to invite us back to His loving care and accepting His rule over our lives: “God says, ‘I will save those who love me and will protect those who acknowledge me as Lord.’” (Ps 91:14). When we surrender into His lordship, then we have the right to ask for His help, to which He swiftly answers and rescues us from trouble: “When they call to me, I will answer them; when they are in trouble, I will be with them. I will rescue them and honor them” (Ps 91:15). Let’s humble ourselves before Him and accept His rule, that we may remain rescued and blessed.

 

Abba, thank You for Your invitation to be under Your Lordship and Rule. Let Your Spirit help us obey Your decrees and follow You faithfully, in Jesus’ Most Powerful Name, Amen.
