Safe In The Arms of Jesus

Thought for Today - May 22
Safe In The Arms Of Jesus
By: Robert A. Searles

     Because I am a child of God; because I have been forgiven, and purchased with  the precious blood of  Christ from the realm of the evil one, Satan,  I can be sure that “though I walk in the midst of trouble thou  will revive me: thou shalt stretch forth thine hand against the wrath of mine enemies, and thy right hand shall save me, the Lord will perfect that which concerneth me: thy mercy, O lord, endureth forever; forsake not the works of thine hands.”  Psalm 138: 7, 8.  The Lord will never forsake the works of his  own  hand, and those whom  he has redeemed.

     No one is beyond the sight and knowledge of God. No one can hide from God.  No one can  keep a secret from  God.  He knows everything we do, every thought we think, and every motive of our heart.  We may be able to deceive our fellowman, but not so with God.  He knows who has genuine faith and confidence in him, and who is a hypocrite.  The knowledge of God is wonderful, beyond any human comprehension, but he is willing to impart his knowledge and  wisdom to us  if we  will seek him and ask him for wisdom.

     “O Lord, thou hast searched me, and known me.  Thou knowest my down sitting and mine uprising.  Thou understandest my thoughts afar off.  Thou compassest my path and my lying down, and art acquainted with all my ways.  For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether.  Thou hast beset me behind and before, and laid thine hand upon  me.  Such knowledge is too wonderful for me; it is high, I cannot attain unto  it.  Whither shall I go from thy spirit? Or whither  shall I flee from thy presence? If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold thou art there.  If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.” Psalm 139: 1-10

I am safe in the arms of Jesus forever.
