Message:
The words from Nahum 1:7 remind us of the loving and protective nature of God. In times of adversity and turmoil, we often seek security and comfort. The verse affirms that the Lord is good and serves as a stronghold during our most challenging moments. He is not just a distant observer; He knows us intimately, especially when we turn to Him for refuge. This assurance of His goodness and understanding during our trials should bring us peace and encouragement.
When life’s storms rage and trouble seems overwhelming, we can find solace in the simple truth that God is our stronghold. He is the unwavering foundation upon which we can lean, providing safety and strength. By placing our trust in Him, we acknowledge that we do not have to face our difficulties alone. Instead, we can rest in the knowledge of His omnipresence and benevolence.
This verse also highlights the personal relationship God desires with us. He knows those who seek refuge in Him. This relationship is built on trust, faith, and a willingness to lean into His guidance. As we navigate the complexities of life, let us remember to seek His refuge and depend on His goodness, knowing that He is always there to support and uplift us.

Heavenly Father, I come before You today, acknowledging Your greatness and Your unwavering goodness. In moments when life challenges me, when the weight of the world feels heavy upon my shoulders, I find comfort in the truth that You are my stronghold. Thank You for being a steadfast presence in my life, for providing me with safety and rest during the storms I face. I ask that You help me to turn to You more often, especially when I encounter trials.
Lord, teach me how to seek refuge in You with all my heart. Help me to trust in Your wisdom and guidance and to know that You see me and understand my struggles. I am grateful that You know me intimately and that You are never far from my side. In moments of doubt, remind me of the promises You have made to be with me always.
I pray for those who are feeling lost and alone in their difficulties. May they find strength in You, their refuge, and may they experience Your goodness in profound ways. Inspire all of us to look toward You during times of grief or despair and to find hope in Your love and mercy.
Thank You for Your promise that You will stand strong with us. May we never forget to turn to You first, relying on Your support to endure whatever comes our way.
