2Sam 22-23, Ps 57 God is my Refuge

A refuge is a place of safety from the storms of life. God is our refuge, and to Him, we can turn. King David, a singer of songs, composed this song which honored God for His many attributes: deliverer, shield, and refuge. Although David was a mighty warrior, he was also chased by King Saul as he sought to find him and remove him from the land. So David sings: I was delivered from my enemies.

When experiencing enemies, real or imagined, know this truth: God has your back, as we say. You may feel like the currents of chaos are overwhelming, but with God, nothing is impossible. Then, we call unto the Lord; He hears and responds from his holy temple, He energizes us, and by His power, we can charge an army or scale a wall.

What are you facing today? Follow David’s example and call unto the Lord.
