    Hide And Seek: When God Protects

    Contributed by David Dunn on Nov 22, 2025
     | 92 views

    A Kuwait war testimony anchored in Psalm 18, showing how God protects, hides, guides, and delivers His children through overwhelming danger and impossible odds.

    I have read Psalm 18 hundreds of times, but there is a version of that psalm that you can only learn in the dark. You can memorize it in the light, you can preach it in comfort, but you can only feel it—really feel it—when life leaves you nowhere to stand but in the sheltering shadow of God ...read more

    God shows Ezekiel a valley of dry bones. And through his vision, we learn to not limit what God can do, to speak life into the lives of others, to allow God's Spirit to fill us, and to give God the glory when he replaces our hopelessness with hopefulness.

    Ezekiel 37:1-14 When There is No Hope The prognosis is specific: there is no hope. The relationship is irreparably damaged: there is no hope. The depression wraps around you like a thick blanket of fog: there is no hope. Yet, today’s scripture suggests that, in the most hopeless of cases, God is ...read more

    Each Christian will face battles throughout the life they are called to live. There will not be one battle, but each of us will face multiple battles, and the situations we face may appear overwhelming as we face our own giants. But God will send a deliverer just when we need that deliverer most.

    “There was war again between the Philistines and Israel, and David went down together with his servants, and they fought against the Philistines. And David grew weary. And Ishbi-benob, one of the descendants of the giants, whose spear weighed three hundred shekels of bronze, and who was armed ...read more
