—Psalm 96:7-13
by: Susan Bond.
Only God is the I AM—stronger than any other force. He will never be the I WAS. Nations and rulers and ideas, ships and chariots and missiles, skyscrapers and mountains and pyramids: these may be threatened, changed—even decimated, but God will stand. Praise you, Almighty Rock, Defender of the defenseless, Helper of the helpless, Hope of the hopeless. May we, like the Psalm writer, face every foe with the faith that he had when he faced Goliath—with trembling not for the foe but for the glory of the Lord, with a holy trembling that erupts in shouts of joy. “If God be for us, who can be against us?”(1 Samuel 17:45-47; Romans 8:31b, NIV).
