Psalm 94:22 But the LORD is my defence; and my God is the rock of my refuge.

Defence is necessary when one is under attack. Who attacks man? Flesh, world & devil.

Our flesh is the first point of contact with the enemy but not the last. Christ on the cross addressed ALL the enemies of those who trust in.

World:
Galatians 6:14 But God forbid that I should glory, save in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom *the world is crucified unto me*, and I unto the world.

Flesh:
Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that *our old man is crucified with him,* that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

Devil:
Hebrews 2:14 Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; *that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil;*

When we take refuge in him, victory is ours. Cause at the cross, he gathered ALL the enemies for battle, and there, they were defeated. Now we can walk in victory. How u ask? By walking in|with Jesus our saviour.



Psalm 94:23 And he shall bring upon them their own iniquity, and shall cut them off in their own wickedness; yea, the Lord our God shall cut them off.

All men are guilt of sin, and prior to repentance, are seen as wicked in the eyes of God. Without the Cross of Christ, if God were *to cut off the wicked*, not a sole would live. Cause the world loves darkness|sin, the world abides in death.

Jesus made it possible for us to not stand in the way of sinners, to not be cut off. But to come off deaths highway, we need to put our faith|trust in him and follow him.

Without faith its impossible to please him, without faith we remain in the path of death, without faith being cut off is inevitable. Faith in him is the path to him, to his goodness, his mercy. Remember this, God doesn't have to cut us off for us to die, cause when we are walking without him, we are already dead. The cross is his rescue act so we won't remain there.

Faith in Christ gets us in life, faith in him keeps us there.. unbelief, keeps us in death.. Selah!
