1st Samuel 11:13. “And Saul said, there shall not a man be put to death this day: for today the Lord hath wrought salvation in Israel.”
THE LORD HATH WROUGHT SALVATION. Why are they coming from every place? Who has power to put fear in each face? He is only a man but God is with him, For the first time Israel gathered and Saul became king.
Some times we feel desperate with no place to turn And wonder if forever our call for help will be spurned. But if it is men only, we turn to for needed help, We will find no real deliverance or need to fill.
God does use others to help meet our need When we call to Him, our voice He will heed – And we will find someone He has sent to fill the gap Preserving us now from some greater mishap.
If our eyes are only on men to help us We miss the whole point that God wants to bless His people who trust Him, and Him alone – He is the One who brings our salvation.
Men are not able to produce victory over sin. They are not capable over strong forces to win A battle that is spiritual when evil foes attack, But God is able to bring our peace back.
“O Powerful, Righteous God, there are enemies around here and they are ready to put out my “right eye.” Give me heavenly eye-salve that I may rest in peace. What is happening here allowed by Thee – so I’ll rest in that fact. In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, Amen.”
