God, you’re such a safe and powerful place to find refuge! You’re a proven help in time of trouble— more than enough and always available whenever I need you. So we will never fear even if every structure of support were to crumble away. We will not fear even when the earth quakes and shakes, moving mountains and casting them into the sea.
Dear Ones: Powerful Place to find Refuge! Yes, He is that place of refuge when the natural surroundings seem to be spiraling out of control. He has already made a place of refuge and has established the path to that place. Follow the Spirit. Walk in the footprints of Christ to find your way there. He is our safe and powerful place.
I love the wording of these verses from the Passion translation. We can picture ourselves in the place of the psalmist talking to our Father with awe-filled words. These verses are a confident declaration of our freewill choice to believe He is able to keep us from the dark one. NO fear! He has proven over and over again that He is more than enough and will meet our needs. Does He meet our needs according to our expectations or parameters? NO! He does it His way because He sees the end from the beginning. Then what comes will be what is truly needed for our situation. It will have far-reaching impact on our lives when it is done His way.
May you enter that powerful place to find refuge for you and your family in these dark times. Kick fear out of your mind and be focused on His ability to save. Don’t look for the hand of man but look for His hand to move for you. Have a good day as you rest in His place of refuge. I bless you in Jesus’ name.
