The Lord is our deliverer. That is the theme for today's reading. There is no sin too destructive, no habit too strong, no enemy too cunning to outdo the Lord. He will deliver, that we can trust in. We saw this in the psalms, in Samuel, in Acts, and in Jesus' story. I loved that in the same reading we read psalm 51 where David repented of sleeping with Bathsheeba and killing her husband and the reading where God killed Saul to give David the promised kingdom. God did this for David knowing what was coming. Yet he was patient with him and delivered him from Saul. The Lord is our deliverer. The Lord is my deliverer. Lord, you are my trust.
