SHELTER FOR HIS PEOPLE

DAILY GRACE SUN.15TH JAN, 2017 SHELTER FOR HIS PEOPLE JOEL 3:16 Welcome to blissful Sunday and your life will be full of unending joy by His grace, and His Spirit shall be a strength to you and your household in the name of Jesus Christ. "The LORD also will roar from Zion, and utter His voice from Jerusalem; the heavens and earth will shake; but the LORD will be a shelter for His people, and the strength of the children of Israel." The day of God's judgement over the nations will make difference upon the children of this world and the children of God. To the wicked, it will be a terrible day. The Lord shall then speak from Zion and Jerusalem, from the throne of His glory, from heaven. He shall speak from heaven, from the midst of His saints and angels, the holy city called Zion and Jerusalem, which house the innumerable company of angels. That day will be to the wicked as roaring, terrible as the roaring of a lion. The judgment of the great day will make the ears of the implacable enemies of God’s kingdom to tingle. God’s voice will then shake terribly both heaven and earth (Isa. 2:21). The voice of God will in the great day speak such terror to the wicked as were enough to put even heaven and earth into a consternation. When God comes to pull down and destroy His enemies and make them all His footstool, though heaven and earth should stand up in defence of them and undertake their protection, it shall all be in vain. Even they shall shake before Him and be an insufficient shelter to those whom are comfortable to contend with Him. And to His children, it will be a joyful day. When the heaven and earth shall tremble, and be dissolved and burnt up, then the Lord will be the hope of His people and the strength of the children of Israel, and then shall Jerusalem be holy. The saints are the Israel of God, and those walking according to His will, way and word. These are His people. They are in covenant and communion with Him. Now in that great day, the longings of His people shall be satisfied. The Lord will be the hope of His people. He will be the foundation, and the crown of their hopes. He will be the harbour of His people, their receptacle, refuge, and home. His people in the great day shall arrive at the desired haven, shall put to shore after a stormy voyage; they shall go to be for ever at home with God of all grace, to their Father’s house. God will be in that day the strength of His people, enabling them to bid that day welcome and to bear up under the weight of its glories and joys. Friend, in this world, when the judgments of God are abroad and sinners are falling under them, God is and will be the hope and strength of His people, the strength of their heart and their portion, when other men’s hearts fail them. As long as you are His people, no matter the shaken of heaven and earth this year, the God of all grace shall be your strong refuge in Jesus' name. Enjoy your day! Personal Confession: Lord Jesus, be a shelter and strength to my life this year and beyond in Jesus' name. Read, Reflect and rebroadcast to bless someone. God will bless you in return.
