In 2 Samuel 23 we are told the story of David, hiding
among the Ziphites, fearing for his life.
His best friend, the King’s son, comes to him and gives him reassurances
that he will become King that his father will not succeed in having him
killed. Things look bleak for David
though when the Ziphites go to King Saul and tell him that they know where
David is. Saul sets a plan into motion
to capture and kill David. David though
has complete faith in God for the plan that God has in store. Psalm 54 is David’s act of praise and
confidence in God that God is present even in this bleakest of moments. I wonder what bleak moments you are facing
today? Be assured, like David, that God
is present. Always trust in God’s plan
for your life. Sometimes it is hard to
see God’s plan. Sometimes you feel like
you just might die before God’s plan is ever realized. The Bible shows us over and over again though
that God is the victory. I was reminded
by a friend last week that God will fight for us in our troubles, against our
enemies. We don’t have to do the
fighting. We are called to be still and
Let God. It is so tempting to take the
control back from God and devise our own plans.
Be sure my friends that when we do that, disaster is sure to
follow. Our plans are never as good as
what God has planned for us. Thanks Be
to God.
