As believers, we are God’s children. A child of God will reflect His character. Each week, we focus on one scripture while highlighting a declaration (Who God is) and affirmation (Who we are as believers).
This week’s scripture is:
Melchizedek blessed Abram with this blessing: “Blessed be Abram by God Most High, Creator of heaven and earth. And blessed be God Most High, who has defeated your enemies for you.” Then Abram gave Melchizedek a tenth of all the goods he had recovered.
Genesis 14:19-20 NLT
Declaration
God defeats our enemies.
Affirmation
I am protected by the Lord Almighty.
Never underestimate the way God is moving on our behalf. In areas seen and unseen, God is our protector. If you ever question how big God’s love is for us, just remember that He sent His son, Jesus Christ, to die on our behalf and protect us from death. What a powerful and gracious gift! Surely, He will continue to cover us beneath His wings and protect us from evil.
A Prayer Starter…
Heavenly Father, You are our all powerful creator. I praise and worship you, oh Blessed One. Thank you for the gift of protection, both seen and unseen. Continue to go before me, beside me, and all around me as I seek to do your will… In Jesus’ name I pray. Amen.
