Charles Stanley Daily Devotional TOPIC: Our Keeper
SCRIPTURE READING: Psalms 121:3-8
Yesterday we learned that God is our protector. Today’s verses from Psalm 121 explain how He is also our keeper, who preserves us at all times and in all places.
“He who keeps you will not slumber” (v. 3). The One who is our caretaker needs no sleep; He is always alert and attentive to our cries, even when our feelings seem to tell us otherwise. If you ever feel you’ve been forgotten, remember that feelings are changeable but God is perfectly consistent.
“The Lord is your keeper … He will keep your soul” (vv. 5, 7). Besides preserving us physically and spiritually, He restrains us from wrong thoughts, harmful words, and inappropriate actions. His Holy Spirit gives warnings to keep us from evil, and He also provides guidance so we’ll grow in godliness.
“The Lord will guard your going out and your coming in from this time forth and forever” (v. 8). God is sovereign. He is with us always—protecting, directing, and teaching us. He accompanies and leads even in the small tasks that seem insignificant.
God is always with us (Matthew 28:20). We can never step beyond the precious love and care of our heavenly Father—the One who cares for us better than anyone else ever could.
Bible in One Year: Job 5-8
THOUGHT FOR TODAY: The Lord guards our heart and mind continuously—even while we sleep.
