“Even
in the darkest places, our God is there. Even when we walk through the valley
of the shadow of death, he is with us. He prepares a table before us in the
presence of our enemies.”

The other day I interviewed a pastor called Lee for my radio show,
The Reality. Lee had been admitted to hospital because he was infected with
Covid-19 coronavirus. He was very ill, and, for a short while, the medics were concerned
for his life. As with any infectious disease like this, the ward he was
admitted to was quarantined. Only qualified medical staff were permitted in,
attired in full protective gear. The only other person permitted onto his ward
was the cleaner (also dressed in protective clothing).
As expected, Lee lay in his bed feeling very forlorn and ill. He
cried out to God for someone he could speak with, who might offer him some encouragement.
Just then the door opened and in walked the humble cleaner. Desperate, Lee
began talking to him and soon discovered that he had been a missionary to
Nigeria. It tuned out this man was a deeply anointed preacher. As he mopped and
cleaned, the cleaner encouraged Lee. Then he stopped and prayed for the pastor.
Lee was most encouraged after the cleaner left his isolation ward.
He even began to feel physically better. Suddenly he had a craving for prawn cocktail
crisps and a can of coke, of all things. Lee chuckled to himself as he drifted
off to sleep. The next morning the cleaner he’d spoken to walked past the window
to his ward and gave him the thumbs up. Lee smiled and returned the gesture. Then
the cleaner pushed open the door and dropped a small bag into his room. He
waved and walked off. Intrigued, Lee climbed out of bed and collected the gift.
His heart soared and tears warmed his eyes as he opened the bag to find an
apple, a banana, a can of coke and a bag of prawn cocktail crisps.
In the darkest places, our God is with us. Even when we walk
through the valley of the shadow of death, he is with us. He prepares a table before
us in the presence of our enemies. Nothing will separate us from his love: not
tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger,
or sword.
Stay strong. Keep your eyes on Jesus. And never, never give up.
God-tracking is knowing he is always – yes always! – with us

SO,
DON’T GIVE UP, LOOK UP & PRAY
I
put my faith squarely in your protection, provision and presence
“Dear
Lord God, thank you that you will never abandon us. Thank you that you are with
us through the storms of life. I praise you that your presence is with us at
this time. Nothing can separate us from your love and fellowship. Not calamity,
not pandemics, not war, not crime, not disaster. Dear Lord, even in the thick
of calamity, you know my needs and desires. I put my faith squarely in your
protection, provision and presence. I surrender to your hand. Amen.”
If you felt the healing power of God on you just now, I’d love to hear
