June 8, 2021 … God - Our Rescuer …

Berry Patch Devotions in 2021 - Day 159 


Devotional Song: ... GO TO THIS LINK ...  Please take the time to take in song and lyrics from Don Moen singing … God Will Make A Way … poignantly singing of how our God is our rescuer, Who will make a way for us, even in the worst of our circumstances. 


Our God is our Rescuer ... 


==============

Highlight Passage:  Exodus 3:8 [ESV] …  

… and I have come down to deliver them out of the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land to a good and broad land, a land flowing with milk and honey,  … 

… God tells Moses of His plan to rescue His people from the Egyptians, and to lead His people to His promised land.            

=============  

Highlight Passage [Context]: …  Exodus 3:7-10 [ESV] …  USE THIS LINK …

==============     


Reference Passage: … Psalm 91:1-3 [ESV] … USE THIS LINK  

… God is our trustworthy/faithful refuge.  


Reference Passage: … Proverbs 3:5-6 [ESV] …  USE THIS LINK … 

… God, thru Solomon, commands us to trust in Him - NO MATTER WHAT! 


Reference Passage: … Romans 8:28 [ESV] …  

28 And we know that for those who love God ALL THINGS work together for good for those who are called according to his purpose

… No matter what comes our way; … it’s part of God’s plan. 


Reference Passage: … 1Corinthians 10:13 [ESV] …  

13 No temptation [also translated “trial, trouble, turmoil, or tribulation”] has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation He will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it. </i> 

… God is ALWAY there to show us the way as our Rescuer. 


Reference Passage: … 1Peter 5:6-7 [ESV] …  

Humble yourselves, therefore, under the mighty hand of God so that at the proper time He may exalt you, casting ALL your anxieties on him, because He cares for you.   

… No matter what our concerns/anxieties, we are to humbly bring them to God.  

 

My Devotional JournalToday's Our Daily Bread author, Winn Collier, AT THIS LINK  … relates a true story of a miraculous rescue where a 911 call led to a police officer pulling an unconscious man from a car, which was on a railway, literally seconds before an oncoming train hit the car.   


The story was to illustrate that our God is even a greater RESCUER, supported by the biblical account (see highlight passage) of God sending Moses to rescue His people in Egypt; and by the remaining scriptures above which document God’s care and grace to be there for us no matter what we’re going through.  


And I’m praying for all of us today … that we humbly trust our WAY-MAKER God, as Don Moen sings about Him in the linked song.  And that we’re willing to go to King Jesus, our RESCUER, in ALL our trials [see photo], …. knowing that He is ALWAYS there to be our refuge.  Do you trust Him today, dear one?  


My THANKFULNESS: ... Oh, Abba Father, thank You, King Jesus, … for being my Fortress and my Rescuer today.     

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray that all reading here will join me, … to trust You, Lord, for Your promise to be our Rescuer today.  … Amen
