• Hide in God

  If someone is pursuing you to attack you, you hide.  You find the best place to hide, and if you are successful in making yourself hidden, then you will be saved.  The key is finding a good hiding place.  The psalmist in Psalm 143 found it.  V.9, “Rescue me from my enemies, Lord, for I hide myself in you.”  If I am hidden in God — if God is my shield, my protector, and my cover — then my Enemy (satan) cannot find me — cannot touch me!! — and thus I am saved (I am safe from his attacks).  He won’t be able to pursue me, “crush me to the ground”, force me to “dwell in darkness like those long dead” nor destroy me (Ps 143:3).  Hallelujah!   

  “For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.”  Col 3:3
