*In The Day of Trouble*
*Psalm 27:5* “For in the day of trouble he will keep me safe in his dwelling; he will hide me in the shelter of his tabernacle and set me high upon a rock”
Sometimes the storm of life may be beating us all around, and we may want to hide, but all we need to do at a time like that is to cry out to the Lord and trust him to bring us through whatever comes our way. Although God doesn't always physically deliver us from all of our troubles, He does provide a place of peace and shelter from any storm we are going through. This verse teaches us that.
*What else can we learn?*
1. In the time of trouble, that needy time, that time when others forsake us, God shall hide us in his tent, He shall give us the best of shelter in the worst of danger. We can completely depend on Him.
2. He sets us upon a rock. When we are standing on the rock God himself sets us on, we are standing high above our enemies, upon a secure rock which can never be shaken by storms.
3. The Lord is our protection and strength in the time of trouble. When you cry to Him in those very trying times, He will be your source of comfort and help.
Thank you Father that when the storms howls above me and there is no hiding place, precious Lord you hear my cry and keep me safe till the storm passes by. Amen!
