The Lord Is My Refuge
(Ps. 91:9~15)

1. God who is our only refuge
God becomes the only shelter when the fierce storms of the world come to our life. Whatever happens as adversity and hardships, our life will be secured once we remain in Jesus. God whom we serve is Almighty and the master of the universe. Even the prolonged Corona virus pandemic cannot make us worried. God will protect His beloved children from the hunters’ snares and severe pestilence. (Ps. 91:3) God will protect us from any types of difficulties. Let us put our complete trust into God.
2. God who is the only object of our love
The secret of faithful journey to God is to love God with all our hearts and with all our soul and with all our mind. If we love God wholeheartedly, our life becomes transformed. We overcome the ceaseless temptation of sins, getting out of habitual faith, getting away from powerless lifestyles thereby living with a joy and gratitude toward God. Fearing God, we love God by keeping the Word of God and worshipping God sincerely. Then, the overflowing grace and blessings of God comes to our life. (Deut. 11:13-14)
3. God who answers our prayers
Prayer becomes the amazing presents of God for us. It also becomes spiritual breaths. Jesus taught how to pray through the Lord’s prayers as it is especially important. (Mt. 7:7-8, 11) Jesus comforts us when we feel alone and saves us out of troubles when we cry out because of distress. (Ps. 50:15) Let us not be dismayed whatever happens. Praying hard with all our hearts, the hopeful answers of God come to us and the beautiful and pleasing wills of God which God has planned will be achieved in our real life.
