Unbroken Bones
“The righteous cry out, and the Lord hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. The righteous person may have many troubles, but the Lord delivers him from them all; he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken.”
Psalms 34:17-20 NIV
Life is lived in Seasons
It is not unlikely or an abnormal thing for God’s children who had once enjoyed the season of abundance and prosperity to experience a moment of lack and adversity. Our seasons of life do not change God and His purpose for our lives. He remains eternally faithful and committed to His plans.
Therefore, in whatever season of life you find yourself, always call to mind that God’s love for you is steadfast, continuous and eternal. It is impossible for God to forsake, abandon and suffer your bones to be broken.
Do not Murmur
So, when time goes tough, don’t murmur, never complain but learn to turn to God in earnest prayers with absolute trust, believing that He will respond to your plea as you allow Him time to act. It’s contrary to His nature to bring you to this point only to watch you with your family to die of hunger, sickness or disease. As you wait patiently on Him without giving up, you will yet witness abundant rain that will put an end to this season of dryness and bring you into your season of refreshing from above.
Good morning and do have a blessed day.
Confession: God will not suffer my bones to be broken. Amen
