*RESTORATION TODAY*
*THURDAY, JULY 9, 2020.*
*TOPIC: JESUS: YOUR CITY OF REFUGE*
_“And among the cities which ye shall give unto the Levites there shall be six cities for refuge, which ye shall appoint for the manslayer, that he may flee thither: and to them ye shall add forty and two cities” Numbers 35:6._
*MESSAGE*
The City of Refuge' refers to a place of shelter and protection from danger, hardship, distress, calamity, etc. The LORD commanded that six cities of refuge be set up among the cities given to the Levites for the safety of those who may have committed homicide unintentionally. As long as this unintended murderer is inside the city of refuge, no one can harm or touch him.
Likewise, Jesus is your refuge from the storms of life. You only need to run fast to Him for safety (Deuteronomy 33:27; Isaiah 4:5-6). Trust firmly in him at all times for your upkeep. Just as the enemy cannot penetrate the city of refuge in the old testament, likewise, no enemy can touch you as long as you remain in Christ (Psalm 91:1; 62:8). The name of Jesus is the believers' isolation centre even in this critical time of the coronavirus pandemic. “The name of the LORD is a strong tower: the righteous runneth into it and is safe.” (Proverbs 18:10).
*ACTION POINT*
?️ Run to Jesus Christ by faith, in humility and holiness; in Him is your safety.
*SCRIPTURES*
Numbers 35:6-15; Deuteronomy 4:41; Joshua 20:2, 7-8.
*PRAYER POINTS*
1. O Lord, thank You for providing for me a place of safety in the name of Jesus Christ;
2. O God, I run to You for protection; keep me and my family in the name of Jesus Christ;
3. O Lord, help me to continually dwell in Your secret place in the name of Jesus Christ.
