Week 17 - Day 4


2 Kings 6-8; Psalm 93

*Click here to read these passages:

Normally when I’m reading the scriptures for the day I read the psalm last, but today, for no apparent reason, I turned to the psalm first.  I stopped after I read the first line, knowing God led me there first today for a reason.  Yet another reminder He knew I needed: “The Lord reigns, He is robed in majesty.”  And then the next verse down, “Your throne was established long ago; You are from all eternity.”

He reigns over all.  He is on the throne.  There is nothing to fear.

Then I turned to 2 Kings 6 and read, ‘Don’t be afraid,’ the prophet answered.  ‘Those who are with us are more than those who are with them.’  And Elisha prayed, ‘O Lord, open his eyes so he may see.’  Then the Lord opened the servant’s eyes, and he looked and saw the hills full of horses and chariots of fire all around Elisha.”

Elisha’s servant was only looking at the trouble that was nearing, but God opened his eyes to see they had an army of God surrounding them far greater than anything that could threaten them. 

Thankful for His voice today speaking to my heart:  Don’t You know I’m in control?  I’m here.  I’m here in greater and bigger ways than you can possibly imagine!  Trust me.

God, open our eyes.
