I am Protected, I am Sanctified

Think about how you protect your child. Would you go to great lengths to keep them safe? Would you put your life on the line for them? Why would you do this? Children never really think about what parents do to keep them protected. What about you? Have you thought about how God protects you?




When Jesus was praying, before the crucifixion – He prayed that God would keep us protected. John 17:15 says, I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil. Jesus wanted us to be protected. Through God, I AM PROTECTED!

Being a child of God, we are set apart from others. In John 17:17 it says, Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth. According to Webster’s Dictionary: Sanctify to set apart to a sacred purpose or to religious use. Christians are to be working for God. We are not to be just on the side lines, watching everyone else doing all the work. There are many people who are unable to physically work for the Lord. But you know, they can be prayer warriors, or encouragers. There are many people today that would not be working for the Lord if it weren’t for those prayers and emcouragements. Through God, I AM SANCTIFIED!
