Just In Time

Just In Time

May the God you serve all the time save you!

Daniel 6:16

Look at Jonah in the fish belly—surrounded by gastric juices and sucked-in seaweed. . . . He prays. . . . Before he can say amen, the belly convulses, the fish belches, and Jonah lands face first on the beach.

Look at Daniel in the lions’ den; his prospects aren’t much better than Jonah’s. Jonah had been swallowed, and Daniel is about to be. . . .

Or look at Joseph in the pit, a chalky hole in a hot desert. The lid has been pulled over the top and the wool has been pulled over his eyes. . . . Like Jonah and Daniel, Joseph is trapped. He is out of options. There is no exit. There is no hope. . . . Though the road to the palace takes a detour through a prison, it eventually ends up at the throne. . . .

Such are the stories in the Bible. One near-death experience after another. Just when the neck is on the chopping block, just when the noose is around the neck, Calvary comes.

He Still Moves Stones
