The Rock Of Our Salvation

  Moses describes the Lord in this passage as an eagle who hovers over her young and carries them on its pinions, supplying them with the finest of food and the best of provision. He spoke of God's faithfulness in chastening His people and His patience in seeking to bring them back to Himself. Israel were God's children who were charged with representing Him to the pagan Gentiles. They were His ambassadors on earth, and yet they bore no resemblance to His beautiful character and never-failing faithfulness. 
 There is much we can learn from Israel's historic years of wandering in the wilderness. There is much we can learn about living a life that is honoring to the Lord. There are many pitfalls into which Israel fell that we must be careful to avoid, and there is much we can learn of the beautiful character of our gracious, Heavenly Father Who is The Rock Of Our Salvation: "Whose work is perfect, for all His ways are just. Truly:
He is the Rock, his works are perfect, and all his ways are just. A faithful God who does no wrong, upright and just is he.

Our United Prayer:
​Dear Lord, thank You that You are our Rock of Salvation, our firm Anchor, and gracious Provider, faithful and just in all Your ways, righteous and true in all You do. Teach us more about Your beautiful character, and help us to grow in grace, love You more, and live by faith and not by sight. This we ask in Jesus' name, AMEN.
