God RESCUES!!

In my studies today, I came across a scripture that the Holy Spirit wanted me to see. It was a moment where this verse was like a flashing neon sign and God was shouting this at me. It was a great revelation that I now can connect with another passage.

Here it is:

2 Timothy 4:18 NIV

[18] The Lord will rescue me from every evil attack and will bring me safely to his heavenly kingdom. To him be glory for ever and ever. Amen. 

That says it all. This is a promise of God that we can all count on everyday of our lives as children of God. No matter where we are in life, no matter what we do or are presented with, no matter our situations or circumstances, God is in control. He will always rescue us from every evil attack. EVERY evil attack. That is huge!! 

He gives us confidence to face anything in this life, because He is our rescuer. When life happens, when the dark forces attack, or the world attacks, or our old human sinful nature attacks, God will rescue us. He will protect us and keep us in His care.

AND He will "bring me safely to His heavenly kingdom."

This is in harmony with what Peter said in First Peter:

1 Peter 1:5 NIV

[5] who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. 

We are shielded or protected or rescued by God's power until we get our inheritance, which is our salvation, our gift of eternal life. God protects us and rescues us from every evil attack until He safely brings us into His heavenly kingdom.

Thank you Father. Wow....

Love you all,
