S. Psalm 9:9-10 (NIV) The Lord is a refuge for the oppressed, a stronghold in times of trouble.10 Those who know your name trust in you, for you, Lord, have never forsaken those who seek you.
O. David writes (or even sings) that the Lord is a safe person to be with. He is likened to a stronghold, a place where an attacker can not get in. Further, those who place their trust in the Lord are never let down by Him. He always comes through for His people. God provides safety and confidence for those who place their trust in Him.
A. What a wonderful thing to know and to feel. I do not need to fear attacks from the enemy as long as I continue to place my trust in the Lord. He provides me a “safe place” - and I have confidence. I never have to wonder that He will never let me down. He will always come through.
P. Thank you Father for the truth of your word. You are a safe place to be and you keep your word ot those that rust you. Holy Spirit fill me and guide me to walk in faith and confidence. In Jesus’ name!
