Together in Christ: 'Who Is God Except the Lord?' — 2 Samuel 22:31-34

Many of us enjoy living with a bit of adventure, uncertainty, and danger. However, sometimes life grows confusing, complicated, and terrifying. In times like these, we realize that we need something, or better yet, we desperately need our divine Someone — our shield, shelter, and solid ground. Only God can be that strong, ordering, and sure foundation. Only God's ways are perfect, and promises are true. King David had learned these truths as a shepherd boy, confirmed them as a warrior, and sang about them as Israel's King!

Our relationship devotional yesterday emphasized the importance of staying with God and having our lives orbit around Him as planets orbit around the sun. Today, we deepen that understanding. We want to do more than orbit around God. We want to develop our relationship with the Almighty, our Abba Father, and realize that His presence in our lives gives us stability, hope, guidance, protection, and a secure future with Him in glory. We choose to stay with God. We also choose to journey into the future with God — loving Him, obeying Him, and living into His purpose as He secures our future with Him!
