Ep. 143: Where Is Your Rock of Escape?

SHOW NOTES:

 

In Podcast Episode 143, “Where Is Your Rock of Escape?,” Kim discusses the places in life where we have experienced God’s deliverance. Where are those places of God’s deliverance in your life? Dangers come in many forms, including physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual, and you may find rocks of escape in each of those areas. Take time to thank Him for His interventions on your behalf. 

 

The primary scripture text for this episode is 1 Samuel 23:19-29 with 28 as the focal verse:

 

28 So Saul quit chasing David and returned to fight the Philistines. Ever since that time, the place where David was camped has been called the Rock of Escape.

 

ADDITIONAL VERSES:

 

Some other Biblical stories of escape:

 

• Noah and the Ark
• The Israelites and the Red Sea
• Esther, Mordecai, and the Israelites
• Paul in prison

13 The temptations in your life are no different from what others experience. And God is faithful. He will not allow the temptation to be more than you can stand. When you are tempted, he will show you a way out so that you can endure. (1 Corinthians 10:13)
