“Verily thou art a God that hidest thyself, O God of Israel, the Saviour.”
The Fog
This verse names something worth holding directly, hidest thyself, spoken not as accusation but as genuine, honest description, worth examining this remarkable naming, God’s own hiddenness acknowledged directly within scripture itself, not merely your own private observation but this described, biblical reality.
Notice this hiddenness is named alongside the Saviour, worth holding both together, hidden and yet still, genuinely, this same, actual title, worth trusting as needed correction against assuming God’s felt hiddenness somehow contradicts or disqualifies his genuine identity as Saviour, both, honestly, simultaneously true.
This is worth applying against whatever assumption has made you feel your own experience of God’s hiddenness must be uniquely, personally wrong, rather than this verse’s own direct naming, hiddenness itself acknowledged as genuine, actual characteristic, not merely your own isolated, unusual experience.
Whatever hiddenness you currently, genuinely experience, receive today this verse’s own honest naming as companionship, a God that hidest thyself, worth trusting as scripture’s own acknowledgment of this real, actual pattern, not your own unique failure to properly perceive what should otherwise be obvious.
Walk Through the Fog
- Receive this verse’s own naming of God’s hiddenness as genuine, scriptural acknowledgment.
- Hold hiddenness and Saviour together today, both honestly, simultaneously true.
- Release any assumption that this hiddenness reflects your own unique, personal failure.
Prayer
Lord, verily you are a God that hidest thyself, and yet still, genuinely, the Saviour. Let me hold both together, trusting this as scripture’s own honest, acknowledged pattern. Amen.
