TODAY’S WORD FOR WEDNESDAY NOVEMBER 4, 2015.
ANCHOR
A heavy device dropped by a chain, cable or rope into the water to hold a boat or floating object fast; a person or thing that can be relied on for support, stability, or security.
This hope we have as an anchor of the soul, a hope both sure and steadfast and one which enters within the veil. Hebrews 6:19.
Our hope is totally anchored by Christ Himself who has entered into God’s presence on our behalf. What a thrill this is to be assured of for all who believe in Him. Every day, we as believers face storms in our life and God’s Word is a steadfast anchor that will get us through those storms.
In the days of Daniel, David and other prophets God spoke through visions, dreams and even sometimes audibly. But today He speaks primarily through His Word.
Therefore, it is very important that we not only read the scriptures but study them so we can learn how to apply the principles and promises from the Word to our lives. Through the promises and guidance in God’s Word we can find strength and faith that enables us to get through the storms of life. God’s Word will show us how to stand firm in our commitment and trust in Christ even when it seems our life has come crashing down on us.
Consider God’s promises in His Word your spiritual anchors. It sometimes takes a storm for God to get our attention so that we see that our need is to depend on Him and to pursue His lead whether in smooth sailing or stormy seas. Learn to patiently wait for God to fulfill everything He has promised you while He is at work to rescue you from the storms of life. Never try putting God on your time schedule. Instead cling to Him, anchor your heart to His Word, and leave room for Him to bring everything together according to His plan and timing.
Our memory verse for this week is found in Proverbs 1:8:
Hear my son, your father’s instruction and do not forsake your mother’s teaching.
Thank You for the anchor that You continually provide for me as I go through the storms of each day. Help me to always read and study Your Word so that You can communicate to me and I will know what You want me to do and how to act through every situation.
