Psalm 91
9: If you make the LORD your refuge,
if you make the Most High your shelter,
no evil will conquer you;
no plague will come near your home.
For he will order his angels
to protect you wherever you go.
They will hold you up with their hands
so you won’t even hurt your foot on a stone.
You will trample upon lions and cobras;
you will crush fierce lions and serpents under your feet!
The LORD says, “I will rescue those who love me.
I will protect those who trust in my name.
When they call on me, I will answer;
I will be with them in trouble.
I will rescue and honor them.
I will reward them with a long life
and give them my salvation.”
Isaiah 26: 3
You will keep in perfect peace all who trust in you,
all whose thoughts are fixed on you!
As I woke up today, Holy Spirit was using scripture to paint images on my heart. I love it when this happens. It’s as if God is using his own scriptures as paint and my heart as a canvas. It is as if one scripture is this color and another is that and then He blends them together to make something beautiful.
So as I sat and pondered these verses, he spoke and asked me to write down these words and publish them for all to read and hear.
He said:
My children, I am a great refuge. I am your safety. I am your healer, your deliverer, your encourager and your comforter. I am available at all time to be all things you could ever need, but you have to choose me in each moment of your life. You have to choose to abide in my shelter and under my wings.
So how do you do this? You choose me by keeping your thoughts on me and not keeping them on the world and its troubles. Those in the world would teach you to be afraid. They always tell you the end is coming and my wrath is coming. The truth is that what is coming is my fiery love that will destroy darkness and rescue my people.
I love each and every person who was ever born or ever will be born. I am doing all I can do to save each and every one. All that was needed for the salvation of the world was already accomplished in my son. All that is left is to get the word to all the prodigals that home is waiting and they don’t have to wander in the pig pen anymore. They have lost their way and are fighting among the pigs to scratch out a living when they have an inheritance in me.
The good news of the gospel is reconciliation. Not anger and wrath. As long as those who are in my church preach wrath the world will remain in confusion. When the true message of my love and salvation is preached the world will be saved.
This is why I need you to focus on me with every thought. I don’t want you to get bogged down in the fear that the world has. I want you to bask in my peace and be the magnet that draws the world to me. Each person is seeking love and safety and if the church keeps preaching doom and gloom the world will feel safer in their rut than in the church.
My son is the hope of the world. He is the desire of the nations and it’s time for my people to preach that message again. You must live it to preach it. You must for once and for all let my peace rule your hearts and not let fear rule your heart. What do you have to fear? You have already passed from death to life. You were already transferred from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of my dear Son. There is absolutely no reason for you to ever be afraid.
So my beloved will you choose to abide in me and live in my peace? Will you block out all the bad news and listen to the good news? What is there to gain by feasting on darkness when you could be feasting on heavenly bread?
Those who make you afraid don’t love you. They just want to sell you something. Those who preach freedom from fear just want to love you and give you something. They want to give you the peace that is within them that came from me.
My dear, sweet children, did you forget how much you are loved? Did you forget that I loved you so much that I poured out the most precious life ever to save you? Stop; think about it for a moment. Would I love you that much and not love you enough to protect you?
There is only one catch; you have to choose my love over fear. You have to take every thought captive and put away the fear by focusing on my love. Your mind is like a machine that runs on thoughts but you can decide what fuel you run on. You can choose fear that clogs up the machine like sludge or you can choose peace which keeps the machine running effortlessly.

As a man thinks in his heart so is he. You can think yourself in safety or you can think yourself in fear and torment. Your minds can be renewed to my truth and you can come to the understanding that I dwell within you and you are safe. Nothing can separate you from my love but you can choose to set your mind on fear instead.
Oh how I love you and wish you were free. Free to play like children and not worry about world events. Free to laugh and run and free to climb into my lap and let me hold you.
Oh how I love you and wish you were free. Free to play like children and not worry about world events. Free to laugh and run and free to climb into my lap and let me hold you.
Those who teach you to be afraid are not the ones in love with you. Focus on the one who is in love with you. Focus on me. Set your minds and hearts on me and on my love for you. Start each day by taking a moment to meditate on my love for you. Don’t get out of bed until you look into my smiling eyes and see me adoring you. Keep that image in your mind and heart and don’t let fear lead you into depression.
Ask yourself one question: In one million years from now will I still be afraid of the thing that is tormenting me today? If the answer is no then why does it matter? Remember all the things in the past that they said were going to destroy the world? What about them now? The world is still here and still full of people that I love and want to rescue.
How about we begin with you? Will you run to me and seek safety in my love? Will you take control of your mind and bring it back to peace. Will you turn off all those who seek to scare the hell out of you and let me love the heaven into you? The world is confused. It is preparing for a funeral while heaven prepares for a wedding. What a glorious time is coming!
Jesus told you that in my house are many mansions. You can dwell in my love for you or you can dwell in fear. You just can’t live in both at once. You live where your mind lives. Live in me my beloved. Please, hear me, I love you and I want you in perfect peace. I want you under my wings. I want you in my lap and not living in fear of what the world is selling.
My son is the Prince of Peace, not the prince of fear, wrath and destruction. Abide in my peace, abide in my love, and abide in me.
This is the end of the words He spoke to me earlier today.
I hope you are encouraged by these words.
Until next time,
Grow Rich in His Grace
I love you all,
