The
Eternal God is your refuge
The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting
arms. He will drive out your enemy before you, saying, `Destroy
him!'(Deuteronomy 33:27 )
Notice
the term “everlasting arms”
Everlasting
means something that never has an end. And the adjective here is applied to
God’s arms meaning God’s arm never tires, never fails, never leaves it’s place.
And here it says that the eternal God is our refuge and underneath are the
everlasting arms. Have you seen a mother carry her newborn child? How carefully
she holds the baby. This is how God carries every child of His. The baby that
is carried may be inconvenienced by several things but the mother is at hand to
care, to nurture, to soothe and to satisfy. So is our loving Heavenly Father.
As
we live in this world, we may face troubles but remember the Heavenly Father’s
everlasting arms are underneath us carrying us, though we do not often realize
it. Whether you are walking or driving your vehicle or traveling in an aero
plane, know this that your Heavenly Father’s everlasting arms are underneath
you. Not only that, this verse says that Jesus will drive out your enemy before
you saying, “Destroy him.”
Yes,
God will fight for you and destroy your enemy. The everlasting Father is with
you to protect you from the wiles of the wicked one. The devil may plan many
things against you but God will not let him succeed. He is your eternal refuge.
The psalmist says, ‘God is our refuge and strength; a very present help in
times of trouble’ How true isn’t it?
