I sought the LORD, and
he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears. (Psalm 34:4)
How was your weekend, my friend? I hope you got enough rest
and spend some time with friends or family. It was a weekend where I had a
number of attacks from the enemy and I think the fact that I am not over my
divorce and the whole two houses thing creates a number of soft targets that
the enemy exploits a lot.
So, much of my weekend was in prayer and every time I think
I got a grip on things something else happens and the enemy just bombards me
with negativity and lies. He condemns me and steps on the pieces of what is
left of my broken heart.
What does “delivered” mean? Deliver is to bring and hand
over. Delivered means participle passive Freed; released; transferred or
transmitted; passed from one to another; committed; yielded; surrendered;
rescued; uttered; pronounced.
I sought the Lord. I sought Him and He heard me, and His
comforter intervened and worked for me. I think He is still busy, but I have
much more peace than before. God is slowly busy to deliver me from all my fears
and step by step He is rebuilding but He is also reinforcing at the same time.
You see God knows how we broke but He also knows to what
extend we broke. So, like any good building contractor He assess and then He
restores. Some houses need only minor adjustments, but some house like me needs
a complete do over. Some parts can be reinforced but some needs to be broken
down and rebuild all together.
In the end the me I see in the mirror will look from outside
the same as before, but the inside will be completely redesigned and made over
so that He can dwell in me fully. You see sometimes God changes our
circumstances, but sometimes He changes us. I believe that He is busy changing
me, because He needs me to adjust and reconcile to His path and His way.
So, I am delivered, but in that delivery, I still need to be
reconfigured and moulded into the new design that God has planned. He knows
that it should be a slow process and not a fast fly by night fix, because He
needs these changes to compile and He needs me to process them and accept them so
that I will be the best that I can be for Him and for His glory.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
