God our only refuge

Dr. Roberto Miranda

(Audio: Spanish)

SUMMARY: In times of uncertainty and anxiety, it is important to turn our gaze towards God and rely on His faithfulness. We must not put our trust in institutions, pastors, or technology, but rather saturate our minds with the values of the Word of God in order to be bathed in a covering of peace and protection. It is time for Christians to live committed to the tools and instruments of the temple of God, such as His word, adoration, sanctification, and meditating on the things of the kingdom. We must seek God daily and entrust all aspects of our lives to Him, as the world is full of terrible things and we need Him as our refuge and strength.

The speaker emphasizes the importance of relying on God in times of crisis and meditating on his word. He encourages Christians to trust in God's strength rather than human things, and to prepare themselves before difficult times come. He also calls for churches to be places of unity and love, reflecting the values of the Kingdom of God. The speaker urges listeners to take a vision of building the kingdom and to lose their lives for eternal life.

The speaker encourages listeners to focus on the river of God, the river of life that flows from the word of the Lord, rather than the hurricanes, rough seas, and disturbing news of the world. They call on listeners to commit to the Kingdom of God, give their lives fully to the Lord, and consume the word of God to become filled with the Holy Spirit. The speaker invites listeners to invite Jesus and the Holy Spirit into their hearts and commit to living a radical life in Christ Jesus.

I am not surprised that many of you and we arrive here this afternoon and there is a residue in our spirit of anxiety, because there is a kind of anxiety that is kind of subliminal that is thrown at us. We are not aware of it but it is there. Who can see those images of floods and destruction in the Caribbean and their mind is not affected in some way. And sometimes the last images we consume before going to bed are images from the internet, of a car that is carried away by the water or a house that is destroyed or a palm tree dancing before the attack of the winds. And that stays there, they are very graphic images that affect our subconscious, they take away our peace, they affect us in many different ways.

And we come here and declare blessings from God but there is also a hurricane there many times in our emotions and it does not surprise us that our sleep is light and we wake up awake with a start. And one wonders why if I'm fine. We are not fine. There are things that are affecting our neurology.
