Strong Fortress

Deuteronomy 33:26-27 "There is no one like the God of Israel. He rides across the heavens to help you, across the skies in majestic splendor. The eternal God is your refuge, and his everlasting arms are under you. He drives out the enemy before you; he cries out, 'Destroy them!'

It's amazing how God can be everything we need. He can be our protector, provider, comfort. love, peace, etc! There is an endless number of positions that only God can completely fulfill in our lives. The verse above reveals the King and Protector that God is for us. When the verse says that God "rides across the heavens to help you, across the skies in majestic splenor," it reminds us that He not only wants to reach out and lift us up when we are weak but also that He is beautiful in appearance (inside and out) and also that He is powerful beyond measure. This verse also says that His "everlasting arms are under you," and "He drives out the enemy before you." These two phrases remind us that God's strength never runs out, it is always there to catch us and renew the strength that we may be lacking on our own. Have hope today that God is your Strong Fortress and HE never tires out.
