    Ps.77.19-20 "secret place" (1 of 2)

    "Thy way is in the sea, and thy path in the great waters, and thy footsteps are not known./ Thou leddest thy people like a flock by the hand of Moses and Aaron." This psalm touches on a specific event and God revealed 'thy way' as He led the Israelites through the Red sea. And past danger and when settled in their land they showed what was in their secret place. They rejected God and wanted a king, and the Spirit has set this for our instruction, " Nevertheless the people refused to obey the voice of Samuel; and they said, Nay; but we will have a king over us;/That we also may be like all the nations; and that our king may judge us, and go out before us, and fight our battles."(1 Sam,8,19-20)

    What is the secret place of a child of God? "He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty."(Ps.91.1). What was in the secret place of the nation who wanted to be like other nations? Darkness.

    The Spirit presents us two generations in Gen.1.2-4 One represents the generation of Jesus Christ, In the other, 'darkness was upon the face of the deep.' He is the covering Cherub who worked through king of Tyrus. " in the day that thou wast created./ Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire./Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee."(Ezek.28.13-15) Generations of kings have had sway over the children of wrath, and and what we see about us tell the truth," I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing." ( Jn 15.5) The nation of Israel refused Jesus and chose Barabbas. Has Barabbas made the world any better. Seven heads of the red dragon cover from rule of kings, democracy and theocracy and it is still hell!
