Psalm 125:1-5
As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds His people from this time forth and forever. (Psalm 125:2).

Friend, please do not fear or panic. Do not allow what causes others to panic to affect you. You are of a different specie. You belong to the creator’s order and your case is different.

How do I know and why am I so confident? I am confident because I believe the word God gave us for this month. The Lord is with us. His presence surrounds us. Hear Him, “As the mountains surround Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds His people from this time forth and forever” (Psalm 125:2). His presence with us is forever!

When the Lord is with you it means His presence, person, power, glory, honor, majesty, riches and blessing surround you. All you need to do is to plug yourself into the flow through knowledge and faith. See 2 Peter 1:2-3.

We must live in the consciousness of the fact that the Lord is with us always. This knowledge would help us to quit living in fear, and desist from living like nobody or as someone with no hope. You are special to God and He esteems you highly. His presence will not allow the wicked to rob you of your blessing. See Psalm 125:3.

Friend, I love this God and His word. Let us continue to live right and please Him. Then we would enjoy His peace and presence always. Shalom.
