3He will not suffer thy foot to be moved: he that keepeth thee will not slumber.
4Behold, he that keepeth Israel shall neither slumber nor sleep.
5The LORD is thy keeper: the LORD is thy shade upon thy right hand.
6The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night.

8The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore.

Message
Sally attended the boarding school when the mobile phone was not yet in use. His parents only followed the school calendar to know when to visit and when to expect him back home. On one occasion, Sally had spent his money for his transport back home on a project in the school. He confidently told the driver to drive him home, that once he got home his father would pay the driver. Sally knew that his father would be waiting for him at this time and always ready to help.
Our God is far greater than Sally’s father and He awaits ourrequest at all times. So take the lift of faith as you
L-Look up to God in prayers for all your needs.
I- Imagine the answers to your prayers.
F-Firmly believe that it is done already.
T-Thank Him for the answers to your prayers.

Prayer for today: Dear Father, I know You cannot fail, help me to trust You for help at all times.
1. Admit that you are a sinner. "For all [humans] have sinned, and comes short of the glory of God....[and] the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord" (Romans 3:23)
2. Repent now. "Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out ...[for] if we confess our sins, he is faithful and just to forgive us our sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness " (Acts 3:19, 1 John 1:9)
3. Believe that God loves you and Jesus died for you. "God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet Sinners, Christ died for us" (Romans 5:8)
4. Invite Jesus into your life through prayer of faith. Jesus says, "Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me" (Revelation 3:20)
