INTRODUCTION: 

In the last part of this series, we saw that the Lord is a capable keeper and that other keepers are needless. As we continue with our study, may the Lord bless us richly in Jesus Name. Amen.

1. THE LORD CAN BE A PERMANENT KEEPER

Just as a man cannot be separated from his shadow so can the Lord be permanently be by your side to keep you from harm, protect you from evil and fight your battles for you.

Hebrews 13:5, Isaiah 43:2; Daniel 3:24-25; Psalms 21:10, Daniel 6:16-2; Isaiah 46:4; Exodus 33:15; Psalms 23:4; Joshua 1:5.

2. WHEN THE SUN REFUSES TO SHINE, THERE WILL BE NO SHADOW

There can be no shadow without the sun. If a man  behaves in such a way as  to shut off God from his life then problems will follow.

Isaiah 59:1-2; Joshua 7:10-12;  Judges  16:14-20; Psalms 57:1; Psalms 91:4; Psalms 23:6; James 4:8.
