Verse
Jesus said “While I was with them, I protected them and kept them safe” John 17:12
Thought
We are so scared of our future, our job, our needs etc. Here Jesus is telling God the Father, I have kept them safe. Our loving Father wanted Jesus to keep His children safe. Today also He has appointed His angels to protect, Jesus to intercede for us and the Holy Spirit to lead, what a loving Father, still we are fearful.
Lord said “Before they call I will answer; while they are yet speaking I will hear” Isa 65:24. Even before a word was on our mouth Lord knew it. We see wile Eliezer was praying for a bride for Issac, Rachel came to draw water. It looks like Lord had already prepared the answer before hand. Yes, Angel told Daniel “Do not be afraid, Daniel, for from the first day that you set your heart on understanding this and on humbling yourself before your God, your words were heard, and I have come in response to your words.” Daniel 10:12 and the word says “At the beginning of your supplications the command was issued” Daniel 9:23. Our Father already has prepared the answer.
Prayer
Lord, sorry for limiting you many times by looking at my problems and getting worried. Lord I praise you for you are a prayer answering God. Amen.
