DAILY SHOWER September 22, 2022 Devotion and Declarations
Prayer before the Word:
_ O God, my King, my Your name be highly glorified for the gift of life. Forgive my trespasses. Please, show me Your way, and assist me to follow it to the end in Jesus name, Amen_
TODAY’S TOPIC: Do not be afraid
Text: Deuteronomy 7:20-26 (NIV):
"7:20. Moreover, the LORD your God will send the hornet among them until even the survivors who hide from you have perished.
7:21. Do not be terrified by them, for the LORD your God, who is among you, is a great and awesome God.
7:22. The LORD your God will drive out those nations before you, little by little. You will not be allowed to eliminate them all at once, or the wild animals will multiply around you.
7:23. But the LORD your God will deliver them over to you, throwing them into great confusion until they are destroyed.
7:24. He will give their kings into your hand, and you will wipe out their names from under heaven. No one will be able to stand up against you; you will destroy them.
7:25. The images of their gods you are to burn in the fire. Do not covet the silver and gold on them, and do not take it for yourselves, or you will be ensnared by it, for it is detestable to the LORD your God.
7:26. Do not bring a detestable thing into your house or you, like it, will be set apart for destruction. Utterly abhor and detest it, for it is set apart for destruction."
SHOWER (Reflection):
We are often confronted by different situations and challenges of lives. God is assuring us that He will give us victory. Total victory is all He promised us. But He noted that He will destroy them little by little. What does it reveal to us about supremacy of God? It shows that our God can do things at all times. It also proves that God loves following established protocols as provided by Himself. This could be why answers to our prayers are sometimes delayed. God might be doing greater things, fighting 'little' other battles or so that will enable us to stay alive and enjoy the bigger one when it happens at last. So never loose hope. Trust and follow Him at all cost. You won't be disappointed.
