Psalm 22:4 “In you our ancestors put their trust; they trusted and you delivered them.” Trust in God is not the same as–everything will go my way. Many think God changes with the times and evil happens in the world–like what happened very recently where a solid Christian man died because of his outspoken faith, because God’s trust is not enough. God dispels such thinking through His servant David. Trust in God like a small child trusts a loving parent. You will never go wrong. Such has been the truth since the beginning of time.

Psalm 21:13 “Be exalted in your strength, Lord; we will sing and praise your might.” God is God. There are many superlative adjectives which a Christian applies to God: Almighty, Omniscient, All-powerful, Infinite, Gracious, Holy, Omnipotent and many others. There is no one and nothing which compares. How can you and I do anything other than praise God. How can we be anything other than humble in His presence-which is always! We, along with David, praise our _____________ God. (You fill in the superlative).

Psalm 21:6 “Surely you have granted him unended blessings and made him glad with the joy of your presence.” David recognized his blessings were from his Almighty God. In recognizing the Source of all his blessings he could only welcome the joy he also lived with. You and I paddle the same boat. All that we have is only because of our Father and He is the Source of our joy. Our response for blessings is joy just as our response for His loving grace can only in return be to live a life He would have us live.

Psalm 20:7 “Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God.” You and I can and do rely completely on the promises of our God. Both our lives on this earth and our lives eternally have their foundation built on the promises of our Heavenly Father. Some would say that trust is totally blind void of physical proof. To a degree they are right. Faith and trust are both wonderful gifts shared by all Christians who enjoy living always in the security gifted to us by our loving God. Absolute security is found in that little 5 letter word–Trust.

Psalm 20:4 “May he give you the desire of your heart and make all your plans succeed.” If you and I have no plans or goals, how can they succeed? They can’t because they don’t exist. God is telling each of us to have plans or goals while trusting Him; while realizing He is at the center of our lives; while living our lives to His glory and He will make our dreams come true. Never be self-centered–be God-centered and watch the blessings flow in your life. Not as a part of prosperity doctrine but as totally trusting and living as God’s adopted child. Have a great weekend.
