Psalm 32:7 “You are my hiding place; You will protect me from trouble and surround me with songs of deliverance.”

To take this idea that God is our refuge, let’s read Psalm 5:11-12 which says, ” Let all who take refuge in You be glad; let them sing for joy. Spread Your protection over them, that those who love Your Name may rejoice in You. For surely, O Lord, You bless the righteous; You surround them with Your favor as with a shield.” Both these Scriptures depict God as our island hideaway where danger is kept far off shore. But both also talk about songs of joy & deliverance, which translated are more shouts of victory. Troubles will continue to invade our lives…there’s no getting around it. But God promises protection, security, and help during those harrowing times…allowing us to rejoice in victory over them.
