Being in Christ is paramount in one’s life.
1 Samuel 22:23, “Abide thou with me, fear not: for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life: but with me thou shalt be in safeguard.”
David tells Abiathar says, “Abide thou with me… “, “… fear not”, “… for he that seeketh my life seeketh thy life.”
David finally tells Abiathar, “… but with me thou shalt be in safeguard.”
I believe we can apply this to what Jesus desires for our lives as well:
Abide in me- John 15:6, If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned.
Fear not- Matthew 10:31, Fear ye not therefore, ye are of more value than many sparrows.
Satan’s plots- Luke 22:31, And the Lord said, Simon, Simon, behold, Satan hath desired to have you, that he may sift you as wheat:
We are safeguarded in Christ-
Luke 22:32, But I have prayed for thee, that thy faith fail not: and when thou art converted, strengthen thy brethren.
John 10:10, The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.
Are you in Christ? Are you abiding in Him? If so, we have nothing to fear because we are safeguarded by the King of kings and Lord of lords!
