Bible Ballistics: “BBs”   #24

I hope your new year is going well.  What better time to think not only about Spiritual Warfare, as we did in Sunday’s article, but to look at another principle that we should consider in this new year of 2014.

Psalm 46:1, 7 & 10, “1 God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble…..7 The Lord of hosts is with us; the God of Jacob is our refuge..…10 Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.” 

Where do we go when we’re weary from the battle?

To our helper,

our refuge

our strength—

the ‘Lord of hosts’ !!

Our God is a refuge to those who will seek Him ‘while He may be found’ (Is 55:6).  Where do we look?

We look to His Son and His Word.  Jesus tells us that He is God, and that He is the only way to His Father.

John 14:6, “Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” 

John 8:24, “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.” 

Only one way–Jesus!  But oh, what a way, what a Savior!!!

‘Be still, and know that I am God’ ? 

Will we take time

to seek Him,

to hear His voice,

to follow His leading?

Why?  Because to KNOW Him is to have a confidence and refuge that the world doesn’t’ understand.  To have the power to make a difference in the world, our world.

Daniel 11:32b, “…but the people that do know their God shall be strong, and do exploits.”

So?  Here’s our shot for the day!! You have a refuge—God.

So? Run to HIM!!.

Be still—

Get to know Him.

Then, be ‘strong, and do exploits’ for our soon coming KING this year!  Today!!
