With favor You will surround him as
with a shield - Psalm 5:12.
God surrounds us like a shield and protects us. He surrounds us from
all sides and keeps us safe like how the mountains surround Jerusalem. As the
mountains surround Jerusalem, So the Lord surrounds His people from this time
forth and forever - Psalm 125:2. Nothing can harm us as God is always surrounding
us. The angel of the Lord encamps around those who fear him, and he delivers
them - Psalm 34:7.
When the Egyptians pursued Israel, the pillar
of cloud moved from before them and stood behind them and protected them so
that the Egyptians were not able to come near the Israelites all night. And
the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud, to lead them the way;
and by night in a pillar of fire, to give them light; to go by day and night:
he took not away the pillar of the cloud by day, nor the pillar of fire by
night, from before the people - Exodus 13: 21, 22.
God is protecting us from enemies like how He
protected Israelites by the pillar of fire and cloud. He is a wall of fire around us and glory in
our midst. For I, says the Lord, ‘will be a wall of fire all around her, and I
will be the glory in her midst’ - Zechariah 2:5. We are very safe and secure as God is surrounding us and His presence is always with us. You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from
trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance - Psalm 32:7.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, We thank You for always
surrounding us and protecting us. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
