God’s Got You Covered

11 Jan

I just finished registering our new car with the insurance company. It’s a relief to get that taken care of because now I know we’re covered if something should happen. Driving around without insurance is never a good idea.

I’ve been quite pleased with our insurance company, but, as good as their coverage is, I know it’s limited. They will pay me if the car has an accident, but they can’t prevent the accident. My life insurance policy will pay my family when I die, but it can’t help me live a better life in the meantime.

Psalm 118:8 tells us, “It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in humans.” Unlike my insurance company, which is in business to make money, Jesus came that we “may have life, and have it to the full.” John 10:10.

If I have an accident my auto policy will help with the expenses, but the Lord promises to “watch over your coming and going both now and forevermore.” Psalm 121:8. My homeowner’s insurance will pay to rebuild my home, but God promises, “If you say, ‘The Lord is my refuge,’ and you make the Most High your dwelling, no harm will overtake you…” Psalm 91:, 9-10.

When it comes to life insurance nobody can beat God’s benefit plan, becauses Jesus promises, “The one who believes in me will live, even though they die…” (John 11:25) and “Whoever believes in the Son has eternal life…”(John 3:36). Eternal life – now that’s a payout worth looking forward to!

Today, as you go about your daily activities, don’t worry about a thing. If you’ve accepted Jesus as your Savior and taken refuge in the Lord”, you’ve got a heavenly insurance policy. The premium has already been paid by the blood of Christ. So don’t be anxious or afraid. God’s got you covered and He will never let you down.
