BECOME UNTOUCHABLE
Daniel 6:16-24

It is the blood of Jesus that was shed on Calvary that qualifies everyman to be blameless before God. However, the qualification does not become activated until the fear of Him is in place in man to receive and believe in He that shed His blood on Calvary. What can be a better blessing than fearing the name of the Most High God? Psalm 34:7, “The angel of the Lord encamps all around those that fear Him, and delivers them.” The word of God is true to perform. Do you consider yourself as one that is overwhelmed by His fear? Indeed, if you fear Him invincible and impenetrable hedges that no demon or force of evil can penetrate will surround you in all your going and coming. Daniel feared God and nothing that was formed against him prospered. Daniel was sentenced to death by a lion’s mouth. While he was in the den of lions, an undeniable miracle prevailed because of his fear for His Lord God. After spending all night in the den of hungry lions, he responded to his adversary. The forces of the wicked that sent him into the den of hungry lions, “My God sent His angel and shut the lions’ mouths, so that they have not hurt me, because I was found innocent before Him; and also, O king, I have done no wrong before you.” (Daniel 6:22) The same God that shut the mouths of hungry lions (not belly-full lions) all night, was and is today. The same God was the One that sent forth horses and chariots of fire to surround Elisha and his servant as a protection against the forces of Syrian in their attempt to terminate Elisha’s life before God’s time was up for his life (2 Kings 6:17). The same God also built an invincible hedge that Satan found impenetrable around Job. The same God is still building His protection around every one of His children that fears His name. Just like Daniel, can you be found innocent before Him? Can it be that you have done no wrong to anyone in a place of authority over you? Daniel was found innocent, guiltless, and blameless before God and he did not wrong the authority over him. As a result the canopy of protection over his life could not fail. Indeed, Daniel, Elisha, and Job had the angels of the Lord encamped around them because they did not camp outside of obeying God’s command. If you will fear God, the blood that qualifies you will be activated as your shield and protection. Receive and believe in the unconditional Love that went to Calvary and you will be operating in this world of wickedness under a covering that is evidently impenetrable by the forces of the wicked.
