Read Through the Bible in a Year 2018 Day 101: God Our Refuge

Good afternoon, everyone!

Today I read 2 Samuel 22-24.

And today I just want to share part of David's psalm of deliverance when God delivered him from Saul.

2 Samuel 22:2-4 - "The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer; My God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, My shield and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and refuge; My savior, You save me from violence. I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, And I am saved from my enemies..."

I love the Psalms. I love how pretty they are. But I also love how they (especially David's) speak of God's deliverance and help.

God is always there with us. Even when we are beset by enemies (physical or otherwise) He is always there to help us. All we need to do is cry out to Him. And remember, just like with David, God may not always remove the problem. But He will help us through it. David praised God through the good times and the bad, because He remembered that his help came from God.

And for me, that's a wonderful reminder.

I hope you'll join me tomorrow when I read 1 Kings 1-2.
