"I'll lose my home and end up homeless. There's no safety net at my age."
How it sounds in your head: The bills are stacking up and I'm behind on everything. If I lose my home, where would I even go? Shelters are dangerous. I see homeless elderly people and think 'that could be me.' Nobody rescues people my age. I'm terrified.
"I have been young, and now am old; yet I have not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his descendants begging bread."
-- Psalm 37:25Source: Fear spirit, media images of elderly homelessness, trauma from seeing others fall through cracks, absence of trust in provision.
She's received eviction warnings or foreclosure notices. She knows elderly people who lost housing. The social safety net has gaps, and she feels she's falling through one. The fear is grounded in real housing insecurity.
She was down to her LAST MEAL before starvation and homelessness with her son. God spoke, she obeyed, and her oil and flour never ran out—supernatural provision sustained her household DAILY throughout the famine with zero lack.
I REFUSE the lie that I'll end up homeless and forsaken. IT IS WRITTEN that the righteous are never forsaken nor begging bread—and I AM the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus by GIFT, not performance. The BARAK blessing is on me by covenant; I am blessed in the CITY and in the FIELD, in my dwelling place. IT IS WRITTEN that God commands blessing on my storehouses—my HOME is a storehouse and He commands protection over it. Like the widow with one meal left who experienced DAILY SUPERNATURAL provision, my Father sustains what He's assigned. No weapon formed against my housing shall prosper. I dwell in the secret place of the Most High.
The Father isn't watching your housing situation with crossed arms wondering what you'll do—He's already working solutions you can't see yet. He's kept you all these years and He's not about to drop you now. His track record with you is PERFECT.
