The word of God is a mighty shield that defends us from negative things. Today’s memory verse tells us that God’s word heals and delivers from destruction. This means that when the enemy wants to destroy you, God will send His word, and His word will shield you from the enemy’s attacks.
If you are trusting God for the fruit of the womb, I want you to believe that your testimony is around the corner. This is because God has shielded you from barrenness through His word. In , He says:
There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.
Also, God shields His children from poverty through His word. says, “Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth." In other words, no matter how tough and challenging your situation might be at the moment, God’s word to you is that you will be healthy and prosperous.
Through His word, God shields His children from lack and hunger. says, “The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want.” Through the word of God, you are reassured that the Lord is your shepherd, and with Him, you have everything you need. No need will arise in your life and remain unmet because Jesus, the Good Shepherd, is for you. says that the Lord will not withhold any good thing from those who walk uprightly. God will see to it that before a need arises, there is more than enough provision to meet it. Beloved, I pray that in any area you may be experiencing lack, your eyes will be opened to see God’s abundant provisions for you, in Jesus’ name.
Another thing that God’s word shields believers from is abandonment and loneliness. Jesus said in that He will not leave you comfortless. He also said in that He will never leave nor forsake you. This means that even if your parents or friends forsake you, He will always be with you.
Beloved, to be shielded by the word of God, you must know what He has said concerning you and truly believe it. A weapon you are ignorant of, or fail to use, cannot benefit you. Therefore, make it your daily practice to meditate on God’s word and obey it, for in doing so, you will enjoy His covering at all times.
