On my way to a prayer meeting in the morning, I was driving along the highway heading to the village where the ministry base we work with is located. Somehow in the middle of a curve I got too close to the right side, and my tire caught the dip going into the shoulder. I swerved, and then jerked the steering wheel, trying to correct myself and get back into the lane. Either I jerked too hard, or it was icy, or both, but suddenly I found myself in the other lane, completely turned around. I just spoke out, "Jesus, help!" And the next thing I know I was sitting on the shoulder/shallow ditch of the other side, facing the opposite direction on the highway. I had a moment of shock and then realized that I was okay, the car was okay, and that there had been no other traffic on the highway at that time. PRAISE THE LORD! I nonchalantly turned the car back on, put on my signal light, pulled out onto the road, turned around and kept going.
Miracles still happen today!
When I got home, the Lord brought to mind Psalm 91, and I realized I had personally experienced it:
"He who dwells in the shelter of the Most High
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty....
will rest in the shadow of the Almighty....
A thousand may fall at your side,
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you....
ten thousand at your right hand,
but it will not come near you....
If you make the Most High your dwelling—
even the Lord, who is my refuge—
even the Lord, who is my refuge—
then no harm will befall you,
no disaster will come near your tent.
no disaster will come near your tent.
For he will command his angels concerning you
to guard you in all your ways;
to guard you in all your ways;
they will lift you up in their hands, so that you will not strike your foot against a stone....
“Because he loves me,” says the Lord, “I will rescue him;
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name.
He will call upon me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him."
I will be with him in trouble,
I will deliver him and honor him."
Did you see that? "I will protect him, for he acknowledges my name." There is power in the Name of Jesus! I called out, and He rescued me. There is power to break every chain - every chain of death, every chain of sickness, every chain of fear, every chain of shame, every chain of lack, every chain of hurt and brokenness. What chain do you need Him to break today? Call on His Name!
Praying you will experience the power of Jesus in your life today!
