In Exodus 6 we find that the Israelites have a problem, and it's not Pharaoh. Because their spirits were so broken by the Egyptian captors they could see, they believed something false about the God who they could not see. Their circumstances in the seen drove their belief in the unseen. But their circumstances were not a reflection of the truth of God’s enduring rescue plan, and the same holds true today. David encounters a national crisis of his own, and responds by instructing God's people to "flee to the banner" of the Lord, and to take refuge in His strength. For David in Psalm 60, the only hope for Israel was to rally to the banner of God’s protection. In Egypt during the Passover, Israel’s only hope was to take shelter under the blood of a lamb. For you & me today, the only hope is to take shelter under the blood of the perfect Lamb of God. Every day, Christians should joyfully proclaim the promise of God’s gift of deliverance, healing, and wholeness found in His Son. -
