“There is no king saved by the multitude of an host: A mighty man is not delivered by much strength. An horse is a vain thing for safety: Neither shall he deliver any by his great strength.
Behold, the eye of the LORD is upon them that fear him, Upon them that hope in his mercy; To deliver their soul from death, And to keep them alive in famine. Our soul waiteth for the LORD: He is our help and our shield. For our heart shall rejoice in him, Because we have trusted in his holy name. Let thy mercy, O LORD, be upon us, According as we hope in thee.”
Psalm 33:16-22
I find it ironic that often as Christians we strive to be strong, to do it all, to seek deliverance and comfort at our own hands—-when time after time in scripture we are reminded that His strength comes from our choice to admit our weakness. From fearing Him. Trusting Him. Waiting on Him.
Reread that scripture. Then read it again. What are you seeking today? Deliverance? Help? A shield from life’s storms? He has an answer for you today.
