PROMISE #341 - DECEMBER 7
Promise #341:
If your parents reject you, I will take you in.
Psalm 27:10 (WEB)
When my father and my mother forsake me,
then Yahweh will take me up.
King David wrote Psalm 27, saying, "When my father and my mother forsake me, then the LORD will take me up" (KJV). David was called a man after God's own heart and had a revelation of God's intimate love that was greater than any mother's love or father's love.
We don't read much about David's relationship with his parents other than the fact that his father, Jesse, neglected to bring David in from the field when the prophet Samuel was looking to anoint a king from one of Jesse's boys. I don't know if this was an indication of David's relationship with his father, but for whatever reason, David knew that the Lord would always receive him, whether his earthly parents did or not.
This promise is essential in a generation in which nearly 50% of the homes in Western nations will end in divorce. No matter what happens in our relationships with our parents, our God and Father will receive us with His arms open wide. May the Holy Spirit give us a more profound revelation of this truth today.
