“The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms.” Deuteronomy 33:27a (NIV)
We hope that today's blessed promise brings you encouragement and hope. At the end of Moses' life, he spoke one last time giving a blessing to each of the tribes of Israel. This verse was part of what he said to the tribe of Asher. We worship and serve the same God and this promise is ours today as it was for them when Moses gave it. The promise is that the eternal God is our refuge and his everlasting arms are what keep us up when difficulties in life come our way. It is a great comfort to know He loves us so much. I like how Charles F. Stanley describes it. “Can we have a better friend than one who is infinitely strong and mighty, yet at the same time loving and gentle? Our God tenderly loves us and protects us, yet has defeated all our spiritual enemies, including the devil.” Let us go forth today encouraged that we are able to face our world because underneath us are God's everlasting arms.
