God Is Our Refuge

This week during lunch I've been listening to Nancy Leigh DeMoss online at Revive our Hearts. Her current series is on Psalm 46 entitled A Mighty Fortress is Our God. I'd like to share a brief excerpt with you from yesterday's program, "Are You In Trouble?" It's a quote from Matthew Henry.

Are we pursued? God is our refuge to whom we may flee and in whom we may be safe. . . . Are we oppressed by troubles? Have we work to do and enemies to grapple with? God is our strength to bear us up under our burdens, to fit us for all our services and sufferings; he will by his grace put strength into us, and on him we may stay ourselves. Are we in distress? He is a help, to do all that for us which we need . . . a help sufficient, a help accommodated to every case and exigence [every emergency, every extreme situation]; whatever it is, he is a very present help; we cannot desire a better help, nor shall ever find the like in any creature.
Today's program is "When You Are Battered By Fear." If you'd like to listen in to the series or read the transcripts, you can find them here.
