Hidden | Jan. 13th

 “For He will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble,”

   Psalm 27:5

  Days of trouble come to both the just and the unjust. Certainly, we can reap what we sow. At the same time, we should not think it strange to face diverse tribulations as children of God.

   However, the people of God have a blessed assurance in the days of trouble; God will hide them. He fills us with peace through the Holy Spirit within our lives and by the promise of God’s word. Scripture tells us that the Lord is providentially working for our good, that nothing can separate us from His love, and that He will supply our needs.

We are hidden in the empty tomb. This signifies our union with Christ in His death and resurrection. Just as Christ overcame death, we too are assured that nothing will prevail against us. Jesus has ascended and is at the right hand of the Father, interceding for us. Beloved, we are well hidden in days of trouble. You are secure today in Christ.

In Christ Alone.
