YOUR REFUGE Sunday December 20, 2015
Text: Deuteronomy 33:26 – 29 Memory
verse: v 27
There
is none like God of Israel. Again, there is none so fortunate like the people
of Israel who have God as their Saviour. Moses used the words in our bible
reading not because he wanted to flatter them but that is real about God. Never
were people so well seated and sheltered, so well supported and borne up, so
well commanded and so well assured of victory over their enemies. Your refuge
here means your habitation or mansion-house where you are safe, and easy, and
at rest, as a man is in his own house. Every true Christians is at home in God.
To
have God as our refuge is the best security from fear, and the safest
protection from danger. Moses used these words to strengthen the faith of the
Israelites. Having the knowledge that God is our refuge should make us to stand
firm in faith no matter the assaults and intimidations of the devil. No storm
can destroy us when we take refuge in him. Those without God, however, must
forever be cautious because they are on shaky ground while the Christians are
on solid rock. Where are you?
Food for Thought: Is God, your wealth or human protection your refuge?
Prayer: Lord, I have made you my refuge. Keep me focused on
you.
