1 Samuel 14:6 "Then Jonathan said to the young man who bore his armor, “Come, let us go over to the garrison of these uncircumcised; it may be that the Lord will work for us. For nothing restrains the Lord from saving by many or by few.”
Yahweh, the Lord saves! He saves us from our addictions. From our bad habits. He saved us from sin. He saves us from getting in further trouble. One of the greatest things about salvation is, the Lord saves us from ourselves From our bad decisions, our mess ups, our mistakes. Grace is giving you victory in your time of trouble!
Every day you need to know the Lord saves. The Lord is the name of JESUS, Yeshua! What area of your life needs saving right now? You might say "I don't need saving, I've got things under control". Fine, you're on your own. But if you say, "I need help", the Lord will save. He loves to save, saving is what He does best.
In 1 Samuel 14:4 it says, "there was a sharp rock on one side and a sharp rock on the other side". Jonathon and his armor bearer were "caught between a rock and a hard place". There were 30,000 Philistines that came and surrounded the whole area.
It says in verse 16 that their enemy was "uncircumcised". That's covenant language, meaning God was not with them. But like Jonathan, God is with us. On your job, in your family, in your marriage, in every area of life, why should you be like the people of the world? You must have this attitude, we are God's people!
Maybe you feel like you're between a rock and a hard place. Or perhaps surrounded by an impossible situation today. The Lord saves by few or by many. He's not moved by the odds against you. He's not looking at your bills or your bank account. He's not reading over the doctor's report and saying "What shall I do now?" Our verse today says, "He will work for us". While you're resting He's working! The Lord not only saved you, He saves you in every situation.
