Thursday, July 29th  God Will Bear You In His Wings

On April 10, 1912, the Titanic Ship left Southampton, England on her maiden voyage to New York City. This ship was considered to be the largest and unsinkable ship ever built that she carried only 20 lifeboats enough to provide accommodation for only half her 2,200 passengers and crew. At midnight, the ship struck an iceberg and she broke, one thousand five hundred twenty-two passengers and crew were lost. We too are trusting frivolous things to save us today.

The Lord says, ‘I bore you on eagles’ wings and brought you to Myself.” His wings are not like the titanic ship that would break and shatter; they would carry and keep you safe forever.

The eagles’ feathers are lightweight, hollow and flexible, yet very strong; they protect the bird from weather, including excessive heat, cold winds and snow. The eagle also has a sharp eye and with four to eight times the resolving power of a person’s eye. It can spot its prey nearly a mile away, from an altitude of 1,000 feet. Likewise, our Lord would in advance target your enemy, pick you up and hide you under the shelter of His Wings.

Friend, you may wonder, ‘hey, why was I transferred, why did I not get that job, why did that alliance break, why am I not getting the visa etc. Dearest, listen; it might be there is some evil out there and He has kept you safe under His feathers. Relax; Joseph thought that he was languishing in the prison for 13 long years in Egypt but later he realized that it was a safe shelter and refuge from the dangers that hovered in Egypt.

Psalm 91:1, 4 says, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty… He shall cover you with His feathers, and under His wings you shall take refuge.”

Let’s pray this prayer together “Father, carry me on your wings and see me through the storms of life in Jesus mighty name.
