It is described as *A Triumphant Song of Confidence*. David had great confidence in God, listen to the words he used to illustrate that confidence:<\/p>\n\n\n<p>1. *For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble*: There was no if, nor but, nor maybe. David was *sure* that God is capable and ready to hide him and provide a shelter for him in times of trouble. *We too should illustrate such confidence in God.* He has not changed, same God yesterday, today and forever! Today I encourage us as we are faced with difficult and challenging times&#8230; We need to have *confidence in God* that he will hide us under his cover at a time when COVID- 19 is rampant. God is still able to keep us from contracting this disease.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>I urge us though, *do not confuse fear with wisdom, confidence in God requires wisdom.* We cannot say we are so confident in God and as such we put ourselves in trouble and then ask God to shelter us. It doesn&#8217;t work that way. God requires us to act with wisdom and trust him at the same time.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>2. *He will conceal me under the cover of his tent*.<br \/>If David was a Jamaican he would have said *&#8221; Em ago lack mi tight unda di cova a Em tent!&#8221;*<br \/>God doesn&#8217;t leave his children hanging! David knows this, he would have had many experiences where God covered him and shield him from trouble. *This is why David is so confident in God; he would have had many experiences.* I can safely say we have had many experiences of God&#8217;s ability to take us out of troubling situations. *This experience should build our confidence in God* and allow us to declare him to others.<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Untill next week , have confidence in God , he has the ability to provide, protect, shelter and cover! Do not lose confidence in his abilities, he has done it before and he will do it again. *Stay safe, stay hidden, stay covered; God got you*<\/p>\n\n\n<p>Blessings<br \/>Shaneka Raymore-Euphfa<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>* *Confidence in God* For he will hide me in his shelter in the day of trouble; he will conceal me under the cover of his tent; he will set me high on a rock.
