Week 10 - Numbers or Nails?



Story: Safety in Numbers?
David's Census, 2 Samuel 24

Question:
What about me? Am I only at peace when my circumstances are under control—steady job, cancer-free, reliable car, healthy relationships? Am I happy only if I’m living the American dream?

Answer:
My strong confidence is in the fear of the LORD. Proverbs 14:26

I succeed not by might nor by power, but by the Lord’s Spirit. Zechariah 4:6

No weapon formed against me will succeed. The LORD defends his servant and gives me victory. Isaiah 54:17

The Lord’s grace is all I need; his power is strongest in my weakness. 2 Corinthians 12:9

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but I trust in the name of the LORD our God. Psalm 20:7

Moral:
There is only one safe place—in the Lord’s hands.
