HOLD ON TIGHTLY TO GOD
HOLD ON TIGHTLY TO GOD
In Psalm 91
The psalmist tells us
To be CLINGY to God
And he will DELIVER US
“Because he clings to me-
I will deliver him
I will set him on high
Because he acknowledges
My name
He shall call upon me
And I will ANSWER him
In distress
I will deliver
AND GLORIFY HIM” Psalm 91:14-15
BE clingy to our God
He wants us to
HOLD ON TIGHT
Like a son or a daughter
HOLDING on to their parent
On the first day of school
Or maybe like a firefighter
RESCUING an individual
Or someone saving you
From another terrifying tragedy
“I cling to you
Your right hand UPHOLDS ME” Psalm 63:8
“LOVE must be sincere
Hate what is evil
CLING-
To what is GOOD” Romans 12:9
Cling to what is GOOD
Like God-
HOLD ON with ALL of your might
And God will DELIVER YOU
“I SOUGHT the Lord
And he answered me
He delivered me
From all my fears” Psalm 34:4
“IF we are thrown into
The blazing furnace
The God we SERVE
Is able to deliver us
From it
And he will DELIVER us
From your Majesty's hand” Daniel 3:17
“He has delivered us
From such a deadly peril
And he will DELIVER US AGAIN” 2 Corinthians 1:10
And he will CONTINUE
To deliver us from
ANY sorrow or trouble
That we may face
God tells us today
That IF we cling to him
He will SAVE US
It can't get any simpler
Than that
“You are my hiding place
You will PROTECT ME from trouble
And SURROUND me
With songs of deliverance” Psalm 32:7
HOLD ON TO GOD
CLING to him
There is NOTHING to fear
“God is our REFUGE-
And STRENGTH
An ever-present HELP in trouble” Psalm 46:1
BE CLINGY-HOLD ON TO GOD
with ALL of your might
