Trusting in What? 1-14-13


Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust. Ps. 40:4
Cursed is the one who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength. Jer. 17:5

The world scene is quite intriguing these days, as biblical prophesy appears to be unfolding rapidly on physical, emotional and spiritual levels. Even just last week, the USA government adopted the posture of “zero tolerance” for God in the White House, making flesh her strength.

Browsing current events, we could either 1) keep our head in the sand by refusing to connect the dots, or 2) turn out backs on God and frolic in the societal current. ~Neither of these options provides lasting peace and joy.

Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust. Ps. 40:4

Thankfully we have a third option. Jesus tells us to trust Him, and to keep steadfast and alert. Then, He warns us: “When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” Lk.21: 28

Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust. Ps. 40:4

Like Daniel in the den of lions, who was saved because he trusted in God (Dan. 6:23), let’s not be wise in our own eyes.

Blessed is the man who makes the Lord his trust. Ps. 40:4

Let’s trust in the Lord with all our heart, genuinely acknowledging Him in all our ways (even when circumstances and relationships seem absurd). As we do, He promises to direct our paths. Prv. 3:5-7

For every child of God defeats this evil world, and
we achieve this victory through our faith. 1Jn. 5:4
