Psalm 119:114 (NKJV) 114 You are my hiding place and my shield; I hope in Your word.
Hiding in God can happen in two different ways. One, we hide in Him for protection from an attack.Two, we hide in Him for protection from distractions, and the things that try to pull us away from spending time with Him.
Hiding in God takes discipline. It means that we need to to pull away from all the things that the enemy may tempt us with. Every second of the day we have to be discerning and alert.
Why does the devil work so hard to distract us and to keep us busy so that we have no hiding time with God?
Because he knows the strength, discipline and focus we have when we spend time with God and in His word.
God is our shield. He protects us from the devil, his schemes and the plans that he has to attack us.
The devil has it out for us all. None of us are exempt from it, even if we are followers of Christ. We still have to watch out for and discern the attacks of the enemy.
The good news is that we have God on our side, and through Him we are more than conquerors! Amen.
Romans 8:37 (NKJV) 37 Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us.
We can and we will get past these temptations that pull on us, and spend time with the Most High God.
