If you make the Most High your dwelling- even the Lord, who is my refuge, then no harm will befall you, no disaster will come near your tent. -Psalm 91:9-10
This dwelling place is a refuge or a hiding place.
Where do you hide when you've messed up?
Where do you go when you're embarrassed or shamed?
Where do you run when you're uncertain or confused?
Who do you call when the floor falls from beneath you, when all feels unreliable?
Who do you call when you've failed?
Who do you look to when you are in need of something greater than you've got?
The name of the LORD is a strong tower; the righteous man runs into it and is safe. -Psalm 18:10
O our God, will You not judge them? For we are powerless before this great multitude who are coming against us; nor do we know what to do, but our eyes are on You.” 2 Chronicles 20
He said: "Listen, King Jehoshaphat and all who live in Judah and Jerusalem! This is what the LORD says to you: 'Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. For the battle is not yours, but God's. -2 Chronicles 20
Some battles are for me to run to you and watch you deliver me. This, I am learning. Help me to humbly believe and run to you and trust that being still in you is my place, as you fight and conquer. I am sorry for trying to take the lead when all you've asked of me is that I surrender to you. Thank you for your grace. Thank you for teaching, Jesus. So I look to you, tonight, stationed in a stance of reliance. Help me to believe in you!
You need not fight in this battle; station yourselves, stand and see the salvation of the LORD on your behalf, O Judah and Jerusalem.’ -2 Chronicles 20
