God will be with You

I recently watched a documentary on the ibex. This type of deer lives on the cliffs of Judea, often known as the Wall of Death due to its sheer cliff faces. At first glance, nobody would ever imagine that anything could survive in this arid and deadly place.

However, these deer have been created with suction cups on their feet, enabling them to prance across the cliff face like a horse would do on level ground. The cliff face that seems daunting to us is to them a wall of protection from which they escape their enemies.

In the same way that the Lord knows how to equip all of creation for the territory He has given them, so He does with us. He has promised that He would be with us in the fire and that the floods would not overwhelm us. Give praise to God each day for there is nothing that you and He together cannot handle!

"He maketh my feet like hind's feet, and setteth me upon high places. He teacheth my hands to war, so that a bow of steel is broken by my arms."-Psalm 18:33-34
