The Eternal God Is Our Refuge
Deuteronomy 33:26-29
“There is no one like the God of Jeshurun, who rides across the heavens to help you and on the clouds in his majesty. The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms. He will drive out your enemies before you, saying, ‘Destroy them!’ So Israel will live in safety; Jacob will dwell secure in a land of grain and new wine, where the heavens drop dew. Blessed are you, Israel! Who is like you, a people saved by the Lord? He is your shield and helper and your glorious sword. Your enemies will cower before you, and you will tread on their heights.”
Jeshurun is Israel. There is no God like the God of Israel. He rides across the clouds to help us. God comes in His glory to help us. He makes the clouds His vehicle to come help us.
God is our refuge. The battle belongs to the Lord and He is the One who drives out our enemies. We need not do anything. Let us live as representatives of the God we serve and in a manner that honours Him. Our life will reflect which God we serve. If people serve animals, their life will be so. But for those who serve the God of the highest heavens, who rides the clouds and is ever present to help us, who scatters our enemies, if we serve this God, our life will reflect that.
If we live for God and in obedience to Him, He will bless us. We must draw near to God and He will draw near to us. But to draw near to God, we must purify ourselves. We do this with the Blood of Jesus. We enter the Holy of Holies through the Blood of the Lamb.
Deuteronomy 33:26 starts off by saying who is like God. It then proceeds to say who is like Israel. A person who believes and relies on the matchless God becomes matchless on the earth. No matter how rich, qualified or elite a person may be, they do not have the status of a person who serves the living God.
God is our shield and our sword. We do not have to do anything. The Lord will deal with our enemies.
There are nine things we can learn from Deuteronomy 33:26-29
