DCLM Daily Manna for Today 27 July 2024 Devotional by Pastor W. F. Kumuyi — God’s Safe Place!
TOPIC: God’s Safe Place!
Text: Psalm 91:1-16 (KJV)
91 He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.
3 Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence.
4 He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler.
5 Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day;
6 Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday.
7 A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee.
8 Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked.
9 Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation;
10 There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling.
11 For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways.
12 They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone.
13 Thou shalt tread upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet.
14 Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name.
15 He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honour him.
16 With long life will I satisfy him, and shew him my salvation.

DCLM Daily Manna Friday 27 July 2024 MESSAGE
Scientists at the US Department of Health and Human Services have said that in the event of a nuclear blast, survival in an underground bomb shelter is guaranteed for only a few months.
They claim that such isolation ensures protection from “the…intense…and the higher levels of radioactive fallout you are at risk of exposure to.” You must also enjoy “proper supplies and air filtration” to see you through the quarantine.
Contrast man’s atomic bunker of severely limited capacity to protect from death with that of the “secret place of the most High”.
God says if you dwell in His shelter, you will be abiding “under the shadow of the Almighty,” beyond the reach of any danger, whether posed by thousands of the troops of the enemy or by perpetrators of evil forces under the cover of the night.
The psalmist arrays quite formidable physical and spiritual foes that would trouble man. But he says they cannot come near those taking refuge in God.
This is good news for humanity, which has been locked in the throes of fear and helplessness for ages. Initiative after initiative by governments and their think tanks have not offered succour. This is because they have not looked toward the secret and sacred place where God promises unlimited deliverance and safety.
This assurance is most comforting against the backdrop of growing dangers and conflicts in our world today.
The call on all who “labour and are heavy laden” to come for rest in God is still open. The rest He gives is through salvation brought by His Son Jesus Christ. As we receive Him as Lord by faith, He builds a fortress in which He hides us here on earth, ahead of His return, to take us to the final resting place He has prepared for us in heaven.

They do not know the ways of the God who warns against looking down on “the day of small things” nor see such days as precious moments to prepare for their days of opportunity.
When we invite the Lord into our little beginnings, He never allows us to remain at that level nor stay in the valley. Nor does He permit our dreams to stillbirth, stagnate, or shipwreck. God charts our path to a destiny that gives us triumph over the vicissitudes of life.
Therefore, we must humbly allow Him to have His way in all our affairs and watch Him shape us up to greatness in the future no matter how bleak the prospects are.
It is folly to attempt to take advantage of the perceived weakness in a man of God to deceive or exploit him. They may not be as educated, widely travelled or exposed; but they possess the Holy Spirit.
God cannot be fooled and trying to pull pranks on Him will be costly foolishness on the part of that individual. Ananias and Sapphira tried to do it with Peter and paid the ultimate price for it.
God’s servants and ministers must be held in high esteem and honoured. We must recognise that they are servants and living oracles of the almighty God.
We must honour and respect His anointing upon their lives and never try to fool them so we can enjoy the full benefits of the power of God upon them.

Jesus Trends Salvation Prayer
Heavenly Father,
I come to You in humility and repentance, acknowledging my sins and my need for Your grace. Lord Jesus, I believe You are the Son of God, who died for my sins and rose again to give me eternal life. I confess You as my Savior and Lord.
Forgive me, cleanse me with Your precious blood, and fill me with Your Holy Spirit. I turn away from my sinful ways and open my heart to You. Take control of my life and guide me in Your truth.
If you joined in that life-changing prayer, congratulations! We are happy that you have surrendered your life to Jesus!
