Jan 14th Saturday My Shield and My Deliverer 1Peter 1:3
The other day I was watching the movie "Mr. Incredible" from the makers of "Toy Story". In the movie Mr. Incredible's family also have super-hero status. His wife is "ElasticGirl", and his son's name is "Dash" (very fast), and his daughter's name is Violet and she had the ability to be invisible and to create a "force-field" around both herself and her family. While reading the passage I thought of her "super-power" and related it to God's super-power, his resurrection power to (us) who believe.
1Peter 1:3-5 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ.
In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a "living hope" through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade -- kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God's power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time.
We often do not realize the "SHIELD" we have in Jesus Christ from God the Father. This shield comes through faith...it is for the present and even more so for the time of the coming of our Lord and Saviour. We need not fear at all the future or the last days, we are shielded by God in Christ.
Jesus walked and talked with the Father, our Father, while on this earth and was never in fear. Today if we are to WAJD, then we will be confident, meek, humble, secure in our Lord. Walk in the Shield of God today!!
