Devotional Song: ... GO TO THIS LINK ... Please take the time to take in a YouTube video of images and lyrics from Twila Paris singing … God Is All Around Us … poignantly singing of how our loving omnipresent God watches over His children (see photo).
God's watch care over His children

Highlight Verse[s]: Numbers 23:21 [ESV] ... 21 He [God] has not beheld misfortune in Jacob, nor has He seen trouble in Israel. The Lord their God is with them, and the shout [i.e., promise] of a King is among them.
… God would watch over His chosen ones, with the promise of a coming King, as they wandered in the wilderness.

My Devotional Journal: Today's ODB author, Remi Oyedele, uses the story of how a British Pastor came to know that our Abba Father watches over His children, intervening when necessary for protection or provision. … The ODB author wrote: In a poem titled “This Child Is Beloved,” Omawumi Efueye, known affectionately as Pastor O, writes about his parents’ attempts to end the pregnancy that would result in his birth. After several unusual events that prevented them from aborting him, they decided to welcome their child instead. The knowledge of God’s preservation of his life motivated Omawumi to give up a lucrative career in favor of full-time ministry. Today, he faithfully pastors a London church.
After a reader has listened to Twila Paris’ song, meditated on the Scriptures above, and taken in the ODB paragraph, I pray that we all recognize that God truly is all around us, watching over our every move, and intervening when necessary for our good … and for His glory.
Trust Him! … He’s there.
=============
My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh Abba Father, ... thank You, Lord, … for always watching out for our good and Your will.

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... I pray, Lord, that all reading here will join me today, to come with a thankful heart today to His throne of grace. Amen
