“The salvation of the righteous is from the Lord;
he is their stronghold in the time of trouble.
The Lord helps them and delivers them;
he delivers them from the wicked and saves them,
because they take refuge in him.”
– Psalm 37:39-40
Remember that as a child of God through faith in Jesus Christ, your ultimate refuge, strength, and salvation is found in God! Whatever your earthly strengths, resources, and comforts they will likely prove to be insufficient at some point in your life. There will probably come a day when your challenges, defeats, fears, sorrows, or burdens will be too much for you. However, they are never too much for the God Who lives within you!
Learn to find your strength in God, His presence, and His Word. Go to Him first rather than last whenever a crisis hits at home, at work, or in school. Look to Him first for refuge and deliverance. You should, of course, make use of those resources God has placed in your life: friends, family, finances, helpers. However, they aren’t going to be your ultimate salvation apart from leaning into the comforting and sheltering arms of Jesus.
Invest in developing your prayer life, your ability to read and meditate on Scripture, your memorization of key verses, and your habits of private worship, fasting, giving, and serving. Do this especially when things are good in your life. They will help build your relationship with God so you can more easily take refuge in Him when the time of crisis comes. He WILL help and deliver you!
