Ps
31:20
God Will Hide Us
Thou
shalt hide them in the secret of thy presence from the pride of man: thou shalt
keep them secretly in a pavilion from the strife of tongues.
The Lord reveals to
us that in our lives we will be talked about by people. He tells us that this is often associated
with pride. He also shows us that He
will hide us from the pride of man. It
may continue but we will be safe in His presence. He will keep us secretly in a hiding place
from the words of others that might wound us.
How precious our God is. He knows
that in this life we will have people that talk about us and their words can
feel like fiery darts. He promises to
hide us and keep/guard us. This will
protect us from growing bitter or withdrawing from people for fear of conflict. We can love people knowing we are protected
from the penetrating impact of hurtful words when we are hidden and guarded in
His presence. This hiding is intended to
provide a safe place of refuge from which we can continue to walk boldly in all
the Lord has for us not having the fear of man but rather, walking in the favor
of God.
