Unshakable

Jesus knowing that they intended to come and make Him king by force, withdrew to the mountain by Himself. John 6:15


How many times have we faced situations that we have had no idea how we would make it through? Life has so many obstacles, twists, turns and set-backs. How can we possibly have the answers for them all?! When problems would arise Jesus often left the scene and would retreat to the mountains to pray. He had the power to take care of every situation but instead of impulsively reacting He knew that God had the perfect solution! Jesus remained full of the Fathers presence by continually spending time with Him. I want to encourage you today, if you are standing in a storm go to the mountain of God. Sometimes all that you have the strength to say is His name. Say it over and over.... Call out to Him. If you feel like crying..... Cry out to Him. Lay in His presence and let Him hold you tightly in His arms. If we learn to run to Him continuously His presence will carry us through and NOTHING will shake us. Run to Him today!

Thank you Lord for teaching me that when things are out of my control; when things are beyond my understanding, it's in that place that I must withdraw from the circumstances and go to your mountain and seek your face. You open me up and pour in your peace that surpasses all understanding and once again I can walk free and unafraid! Lord, there is no one like You! You are my place of safety, my shelter, my strong tower..... I love You!
