Overcoming: Devotions from Time of Grace

DAY 12 OF 35

Faith During Times of Loss

We all enjoy fantasizing about quick solutions to our troubles--a big lottery hit, miraculous pills to fix medical problems, a beautiful new car dropped off at the curb.

You and I both know that those things rarely happen and that we'd be fools to count on them. I'm not going to lie to you--it can be hard to keep believing in God's beautiful promises when the outward outlook of our lives often seems so grim.

Though we see the damage he has done, we can't actually see Satan and his demons at work. But neither can we see disasters that didn't happen because of God's many interventions. When we pray about being broke, God's answer might be to prevent our car from breaking down. Or, maybe there was going to be a fire in our house but he prevented it from starting. Though we can't see God's holy angels, we can trust that they are on duty and flawlessly executing God's orders for the protection of
the believers.

Here is a faith-building promise from your Father: "He will command his angels concerning you to guard you in all your ways" (Psalm 91:11).
