Remain in Christ
Psalms 32:7 NKJV
[7] You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall surround me with songs of deliverance. Selah
We can’t know God as our “hiding place” until we come to the place of total dependency, weakness, and humility. The psalmist knew that. He wrote from a place of trust, clinging, and dependency. “You preserve me from trouble.” "Preserve" is the Hebrew word "natsar (H5241)" which Strong’s Concordance defines as: to guard, to protect, to maintain ...... When we realize our need for God’s protection and covering, we recognize that He is our only hiding place and that we can abide under the shadow of His wings, under the shelter of His protection. When we walk in this reality, we experience safety and security, just like the psalmist.
The truth is, we are vulnerable in this world outside of God. So many things are out of our control. At any moment, we could suffer loss, be struck by tragedy, or diagnosed with a deadly disease. It’s only because the Lord is our hiding place that our life is preserved in such a dangerous existence.
This doesn’t mean that we’ll never have any challenges or suffering but I don’t think any of us really has any idea how many troubles God has already protected us from and preserved us in. God loves you today. As you abide IN CHRIST and endure in faith know that Father God truly is and will be your hiding place. As Psalm 91 says, “Psalms 91:1-3 NKJV
[1] He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. [2] I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.” [3] Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler And from the perilous pestilence."
Even when things get intense choose to remain IN CHRIST and abide under His covering.
