You are not hidden
31 In thee, O Lord, do I put my trust; let me never be ashamed: deliver me in thy righteousness.
2 Bow down thine ear to me; deliver me speedily: be thou my strong rock, for an house of defence to save me.
3 For thou art my rock and my fortress; therefore for thy name's sake lead me, and guide me.
4 Pull me out of the net that they have laid privily for me: for thou art my strength.
Psalms 33
10 The Lord bringeth the counsel of the heathen to nought: he maketh the devices of the people of none effect.
11 The counsel of the Lord standeth for ever, the thoughts of his heart to all generations.
12 Blessed is the nation whose God is the Lord; and the people whom he hath chosen for his own inheritance.
13 The Lord looketh from heaven; he beholdeth all the sons of men.
14 From the place of his habitation he looketh upon all the inhabitants of the earth.
15 He fashioneth their hearts alike; he considereth all their works.
18 Behold, the eye of the Lord is upon them that fear him, upon them that hope in his mercy;
19 To deliver their soul from death, and to keep them alive in famine.
20 Our soul waiteth for the Lord: he is our help and our shield.
21 For our heart shall rejoice in him, because we have trusted in his holy name.
Selah!
I don't know about you but in my own life and my own testimony,
I too like David, have learned that no matter what I face and no matter the obstacle, no matter how many lies the devil tries to tell me to make me feel like God has forgotten me, no matter how many times I battle fear and doubt about myself, who I am or what God has called me to do, the one thing for sure I can count on is My Heavenly Father has time after time, my whole life, from a teenage girl walking to work 6 to 8 blocks because my car was broke down, He ( My Jesus ) sent someone who saw me walking every day to work to buy me a car...
to healing me when I was 5 months pregnant with my daughter Amanda, to protecting me by guardian angels that I felt personally with me when I was in a shooting where my husbands sister got killed,and in a time, my lowest point in life that I felt forsaken by everyone, alone and my self esteem hit bottom...ground zero for sure....
I know my God has never forsaken me.
Psalms 32
7 Thou art my hiding place; thou shalt preserve me from trouble; thou shalt compass me about with songs of deliverance.
Selah!
See this is the heart of David, it was never about all of the great exploits David did as a great warrior or a great king, because deep down David knew the that he had failed God just as many times as he had done the things that pleased Him, but the thing that made David a man after God's own heart is the fact that David knew who was there to rescue him in every time of heartache, failure and despair, David knew it was God's hand upon him that made him King, David knew who's hand was with him to win every battle He fought.
Often times, we miss the blessings and/or the divine intervention of God in our lives because instead of seeking God for His heart, we are selfishly seeking for what's in ours.... Our spirit man in constantly in tug of war with the things we carry in our own heart. It is our own selfish pride and desires that are the greatest obstacle of the destiny God has called us to.
It is only when we release those things, that we can fully walk in all God has for us. You see the struggle of this in the life of David, but in every circumstance David always continually sought the heart of His Lord and Savior and always cast the glory upon the Lord.
Now I said all of that because I want you to see today that it does not matter where you are in life, or what the obstacles are that you are facing, when you come to God not to seek your own desires but to truly seek after His heart and all He has for you, and when you are ready to just cast yourself at His feet and lay all of your burdens there, with no hidden agenda's or pre-conceived notions about how you want things to be, but truly seek to please the heart of God, can I tell you, He will never fail you!!!
He has always been faithful!!! He may not fight every battle for you, sometimes He may only give you the strength to fight but one thing for sure, you will never fight a battle alone....
Idon't know but I have felt like God wanted me to write this message for you, the one struggling right now, maybe you feel like your in the hardest battle of your life, holding on by a thread, and wondering if God has forsaken you? I too have been there my friend and I know it is not an easy place to be. But can I just ask you today, how many times has Jesus came to your rescue?
How many times have you seen His hand at work in your life?
Stop and Love on Him and Praise Him, the book of Pslams in full of Worship penned by David, It's my favorite place to read when I feel desperate or afraid, Go there and search the scripture for it will bring you life.
But most of all, Remember and Praise your heavenly Father with your whole heart for all He has done for you. And know without a doubt He will again come to your RESCUE!!!
Psalms 35
34 I will bless the Lord at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth.
2 My soul shall make her boast in the Lord: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad.
3 O magnify the Lord with me, and let us exalt his name together.
4 I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears.
7 The angel of the Lord encampeth round about them that fear him, and delivereth them.
8 O taste and see that the Lord is good: blessed is the man that trusteth in him.
9 O fear the Lord, ye his saints: for there is no want to them that fear him.
Selah!
His ears are not deaf, His arms are not short concerning His promises to us, He has always been faithful to those who will seek Him with their whole heart.
He is the FAITHFUL GOD of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, Joseph, Sampson and David, and Moses and Aaron, Joshua and on and on the bible is full of God continually coming to the rescue of His children. Has God Changed? Or Is He the same God, who in our own day to day lives has moved mountains and brought us through valleys of despair and brought us to a place of deliverance time and time again.
So Even In My Darkest Hour I Will Proclaim I Remember!!! I Remember!!! You Have Always Been Faithful To Me!!!
