Based on Psalm 71:1-3
Security. Security from loneliness, security from discomfort, security from poverty, security from powerlessness, security from violence, security from sickness, security from death.
How much would comprehensive security and insurance company guaranteeing total immunity from all these things cost?
I think most of us would be willing to work hard and put up with discomfort and inconvenience to be able to afford such a service. Jehovah offers it free of charge to us, though he does require us to do some hard work. Satan is sure to cause us to perceive discomfort and inconvenience by deceiving us into thinking that we deserve a life of comfort and power, which worked on me. How about you?
In this life of real dangers for many and real inconvenience for the rest of us, we have comprehensive security from Jesus; he will protect us from everything that will not make us stronger. We also have comprehensive life insurance from Jesus, who promises to restore more than everything we lose, including our life itself. That is good insurance; and it's free. It does come with conditions though; we must rely on Jesus for security and assurance, and be willing to be saved in his righteousness not persist in our unrighteousness. Sounds like a great deal to me. How about you?
