It does not matter if we're surrounded by material wealth; if we're not seeking and acknowledging God, we're weak and vulnerable. Nothing of man can save us, only the things of the Spirit; our strength and courage come from Him alone. God can do what money can't do.
Numbers 14:9 Only do not rebel against the Lord. And do not be afraid of the people of the land because we will devour them. Their protection is gone, but the Lord is with us. Therefore, do not be afraid of them.”
Father, search our hearts and minds and remove everything that doesn't please You. Lord, only You can strengthen and protect us from this dark and cruel world, not our man-made possessions. Lord, let us not be like the Canaanites, overly comfortable in ourselves and the material things we possess. Father, help us surrender all that separate us from You and baptize us in the things of the Spirit. So, we can rest in the assurance of Your protection, guidance, and Your promise. Lord, we confess our weakness and our sins, so we can make room in our lives for You to move, in Jesus' name, Amen.
