6/15/13 Isaaiah 32.2 Your Refuge and Shelter


Isaiah 32:2 (NAS) And each will be like a refuge from the wind, And a shelter from the storm, Like streams of water in a dry country, Like the shade of a huge rock in a parched land.

 

Winds of sorrow and trouble come against everyone and it has been no different for you. You have been the target of angry tempers and impatient dispositions from those who are bitter and discontented.  At those times, you needed a champion--a Man who could stand up to your severest attacks.  Though He came in the form of weak, frail flesh, like your own, Jesus the Son of Man chose to be your hiding place.

 

He fervently loves and cherishes you. He is your shelter and protection.  In Him you are concealed in the secret place of the Most High God from thunderstorms and torrents of rain. However, when you are in a dry parched land, the Lord is like rivers of water.  In the desert heat, the Lord God is a shade for you.  You can shelter in His shadow; He is like a great and massive rock. He is your stronghold and your security. When you are faint, weary, and exhausted, God is your refreshing and your strength.
