In the Cave He Prayed
I cried unto the Lord with my voice; with my voice unto the Lord did I make my supplication. Psalm 142:1
David had fled to a cave to escape Saul. And there he prayed. Feeling that he was forsaken by friends and pursued by enemies, he was left entirely to the mercy of God. It is interesting to note these points in the prayer: I poured out my complaint before him . This is what prayer is. It is individual. Each pours out himself before the throne of God. His real self. There is no point in holding anything back, for God already knows. They privily laid a snare for me . There are snares and entrapments out there. No question about it. This necessitates that we watch and pray lest we be overcome. This enables the victim to become the victor. Refuge failed me . Try every human assurance and every material safety program, and then the weary conclusion is, refuge failed me. It is not to be found in materials. There is only one unfailing, protective refuge, and that is God. Deliver me from my persecutors ; for they are stronger than I. There are circumstances and people stronger than our bare selves; but with God in our corner, we are stronger than they. This puts a song in my heart. Leroy Brownlow
What a man possesses is not as important as what possesses him.
