We all agree that simple is good.
I enjoyed the reminder of this truth that I read this morning during my devotional time.
“The Lord is my rock, my fortress, and my Savior”
These simple words of 2 Samuel 22:1 instantly encouraged me.
I found comfort in knowing just how solid my life can be because of my faith in God.
He is my rock, assuring me that as long as I stand on His Word and do not depart from His presence, I will not fall and I will not be shaken.
For who is able to shake the ground under God’s feet?
No one, of course.
He is my fortress, assuring me that as long as I stay within the boundaries of His will, I will find His protection during the inevitable attacks of life.
Foes will send arrows and will batter the walls and pronounce all sorts of accusations. But they will not defeat the walls of God’s authority and promised safe haven for the souls of those who remain in Him.
And He is my Savior.
I really like this declaration of King David.
It’s great to have a solid place to stand and a fortress to protect us.
But what about eternity?
Do we really want to be in a situation forever where enemies can attack?
Of course not.
We look forward to the day in glory when enemies are no more and we won’t be standing on the rock but instead on streets of gold.
I am so glad that I have a Savior to deliver me to heaven.
Our rock. Our fortress. Our Savior.
It’s really a good thing that David saw God for who He is.
I pray that you see God the same way.
As always, I love you
Martin
