When we read of miraculous deliverances, like that of Peter from prison, of Daniel from the lions' den, or the three Hebrew captives from the fiery furnace, each one of us should be able to say with positive assurance, "You have given commandment to save me." (Psalm 71:2)
God commands deliverance: "You are my King, O God: command deliverances for Jacob." (Psalm 44:4)
And He delivers us in His righteousness, and causes us to escape every temptation and snare of the devil. How safely and securely we abide in God as our strong Tower! "You are my hiding place; You shall preserve me from trouble; You shall compass me about with songs of deliverance." (Psalm 32:7) "And now shall my head be lifted up above my enemies round about me; therefore will I offer in His tabernacle sacrifices of joy; I will sing, yea, I will sing praises unto the Lord." (Psalm 27:6)--Present Truth, May 1, 1902--Psalm 71:2.
