OUR REFUGE IN TIMES OF TROUBLE

Psalms 9:9 (KJV) The LORD also will be a refuge for the oppressed, a refuge in times of trouble.

In the meantime, before God arises to judge the whole world, He is the refuge for His people. He will never forsake the person who sincerely seeks Him, never. Let us encourage ourselves with this truth when our seeking does not seem to bring any results, when our experience tempts us to give in to discouragement and depression, and when our enemy Satan suggests that God, at least for the time, refuses to hear us, or has even forsaken us.

Scripture has much to say about our treatment of the weak; we look to Jesus as the best example. He visited the homes of undesirable people and spoke openly to followers society shunned; he broke bread with all who sought Him. He died on the cross to save an entire world of sinners. We are thankful to our God in Heaven for loving and caring for us; we find solace in His mighty arms.
