Today’s chapter: Psalm 53

Today’s verse: Psalm 53:5

There were they in great fear, where no fear was: for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee: thou hast put them to shame, because God hath despised them.

For many years I have been having a strange recurring dream. In the dream I am always unprepared for school. Sometimes I have no clean or ironed uniform, other times I can’t find my socks.

This leads to one of two things: I will be late or absent because I am not prepared. In the dream a heightened sense of panic and fear looms large. It’s quite an interesting dream because in reality I always have more than enough uniforms for a week.

Additionally, it would take circumstances beyond my control to make me late or absent from school.

There [I was] in great fear, where no fear was:

One morning I woke up and asked myself, why am I so fearful in my dreams when reality paints a different picture? In subsequent dreams, I borrowed uniforms and socks from my sister and cousin to go to school.

Voila! I tapped into reality and reshaped the outcome of my dream.

Life, like my recurring dream will haunt you with many fearful thoughts, situations and experiences. When this happens reshape your circumstances by tapping into God’s protective powers.

He has the ability to dispel your fears by reshaping and changing your circumstances. In fact, God will go to great lengths to protect you.

…for God hath scattered the bones of him that encampeth against thee…

Let go of your fears today and exchange them with the protection and provision of God.
