Knowing God - The Lord Delivers






Ps 34:19

Many are the afflictions of the righteous:
but the Lord delivereth him out of them all.


The Lord delivers.  This word delivers means; to snatch away, to preserve and to defend.  We often focus on our many afflictions but we must remember that the Lord delivers us out of them all – not some, but ALL.  We can endure afflictions much better if we look at what we is not obviously seen.  The afflictions we go through will work for us a great and exceeding glory while we consciously focus on seeing the Lord’s clever means of defending and preserving us out of them.  As we endure some incredibly difficult times, if we are His righteous, we can confidently stand on the promise that the Lord, Himself, delivers us out of ALL our afflictions.   He heard the cries of His people in Egypt, He heard the cries of His people in Babylon and He hears the cries of His people in the oppression and affliction we now face.  Thank You Lord, that we can look for Your deliverance and You want to receive credit for our safe passageway out of affliction’s entrapment.
