A Glorious Reminder

“Thou tellest my wanderings:  put thou my tears into thy bottle:  are they not in thy book?  When I cry unto thee, then shall mine enemies turn back:  this I know; for God is for me.  In God will I praise his word: in the LORD will I praise his word.  In God have I put my trust: I will not be afraid what man can do unto me.”

 Psalm 56:8-11

Who can do any harm to us when God is for us?  He that counts the stars and knows them by name is for us.   He that authored the redemptive plan and sent His Son the Lord Jesus Christ to pay our debt for our sins, He is for us.  Have you ever really given thought to the fact that Almighty God is for you?  During a great time of distress brought about by the Philistines, David is not so overwhelmed that he is not able to remind himself, “God is for me.”  I wonder who it is that might represent the Philistine’s in your life at this very moment?  I pray that you will get a hold of this faith building truth and let it sink in deep so that you will stand strong in God’s power.

A wonderful picture is painted of God’s compassion and care for His people.   Our tears are gathered into a bottle and recorded into His book.   Many saints may say, “Where is God in all of these afflictions?”   My friend, He is close enough to bottle your tears.   In our times of great distress, David gives a wonderful template to follow.  We pray, we praise, we put our trust in our God and we put away fear.

Remember God who sent His only begotten Son and, by such a merciful act saved us from eternal damnation, is for us.   Psalm 118:6 says, “The LORD is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do to me?”  Do not shrink back and do not flee.   The one who delights in you is for you- not for an hour, not for a day and not for a season, but always and forever, He is your mighty fortress. God is for us.
