6. For this shall every one that is godly pray unto thee in a time when thou mayest be found: surely in the floods of great waters they shall not come nigh unto him.
Galatians 6:16-17
There is a particular truth about God: He is particular about those who belong to Him to keep them safe from trouble, particularly those who know His name and call upon Him while He is near. The Lord is near to them that obey His commands and keep His word. He marks them out for safety so that when others around are being devastated, nothing comes near them to devastate them. A clear example is the woman of Jericho called Rahab. God had demonstrated to Israel in Egypt that where the mark of the blood of the lamb was found, the angel of death would Passover and there would be safety there. When the spies got to Jericho and they were preserved by the acts of a harlot, the harlot sought to come under the umbrella of the Lord before the devastating war consumed Jericho which was when for her, the Lord could be found. She let the spies down a window on the wall with a red scarlet rope. The color was that of the blood. Her safety was also to come from putting the same rope on the window of her apartment so that the flood of the Israeli army would preserve her. The real Passover Lamb is the Christ Jesus Himself. Paul knew this and declared his safety by saying he bore in his body the mark of the Lord Jesus. Everyone that wants to be safe from the evil floods of the world need to call upon the Lord and bear the same mark of the blood. No devil is able to trample upon the mark. It worked for Israel and Rahab; it will also work for us.
Let no one deceive you. There is mighty power to save from the floods of the world in the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. If you will call upon the Lord today and make Him Lord over your life, He will place the mark of His blood on you and ward off every torrent from the kingdom of darkness from you. The blood is the overcoming tool over the devil. You can also experience greater joy and peace by bearing in your body the mark of the Lord Jesus Christ.
SOLUTION: Bearing the mark is not automatic. It requires an act of faith. It is by grace through faith that we are saved. Hence, have faith in God; call upon Him and request for the indelible mark of the blood which translates into a hedge of fire around you. Always be thankful for the hedge when you receive it.
Father, we have no other God but you. Please build your hedge of fire around us by the reason of the blood of Jesus that no evil may be able to overtake us ever again in the name of Jesus Christ. Please help to sustain the hedge that it be not broken so that no serpent gets an in road to bite us in Jesus’ name.
Please share to others. God bless you as you do.
