Having confidence in God’s love for you is a great place to be!
“You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah! I will instruct you and teach you in the way you should go; I will guide you with My eye.” [2]
Hidden in God! Preserved from trouble! Songs of deliverance in one’s ears! The Lord instructing, teaching and guiding your life! This is a great place to be!
“Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord, the people He has chosen as His own inheritance. No king is saved by the multitude of an army; a mighty man is not delivered by great strength. A horse is a vain hope for safety; neither shall it deliver any by its great strength. Behold, the eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him, on those who hope in His mercy, to deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.” [3]
I can see where having a great army with lots of horsepower under the hood can be a handicap to a nation. Why? Because they may trust in themselves. They may trust in created things to deliver them rather than trust in their Creator.
The eye of the Lord is on those who fear Him! The ones who know they need Him! They know they need His favor! They know they need to be in continual relationship with GOD to be safe and to be provided for. I pity the nation whose leaders think they are god, and the people believe their lies.
Being fully persuaded that God loves you and will always take care of you is a great place to be!
“For when we were still without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly. For scarcely for a righteous man will one die; yet perhaps for a good man someone would even dare to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from wrath through Him. For if when we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life.” [4]
