Writing on Psalm 44 Scroggie declares ,'Deity makes all the difference in a difficulty',just think that as we face today we are not on our own.As Moses faced the challenge of leading Israel God assured him that His presence would go with them. ( Exodus 33 v 14).When David faced Goliath,he declared the Lord was with him (1 Samuel 17 v 46.When Paul was a prisoner he tells us that everyone deserted him but then he adds,'But the Lord stood at my side and gave me strength', the Lord was with him. (2 Timothy 4 v16 -17)The Lord being with them made a difference to them ,and it will make a difference to us,one could say they were special people,so they received preferential treatment, not so,their status is our status we are children of God .The Lord is with us as He was with them, oh yes they had greater gifts than us,God used them in mighty ways,but that does not make us nobodies or inferior in God's eyes.Everyday we can rejoice that God is with us, and means everything,you and I are the apple of God's eye.So let us be strong and courageous, let us not be afraid,let us not be discouraged,never forget that the Lord is with us wherever we go.( Joshua1v9.)
'Behold what manner of love the
Father has bestowed on us, that
we should be called children of
God.' (1 John3 v 1)
