Fled to You for Refuge?
Dear Lord, I pray for wisdom for those who have fled to you for refuge. In Jesus’ name, amen.
Martin Luther wrote “A Might Fortress Is Our God.” The first verse is…
“A mighty fortress is our God,
a bulwark never failing;
our helper he, amid the flood
of mortal ills prevailing.
For still our ancient foe
does seek to work us woe;
his craft and power are great,
and armed with cruel hate,
on earth is not his equal.”
In Psalm 143:9-10 (ESV), the psalmist, David, turns to God and asks for refuge.
“Deliver me from my enemies, O Lord!
I have fled to you for refuge.
Teach me to do your will,
for you are my God!
Let your good Spirit lead me
on level ground!”
Do you need a bulwark never failing? Do you need refuge from enemies? Ask God. Let his Spirit lead.
