An Evening Thought

But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble.  And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.

 Psalm 37:39-40


Scarcely I’m afraid does the child of God depend on the deliverance or the strength of God.  In this Psalm David has written about and teaches us that in this world we have all around us and on every side the wicked.  We tip toe down the path of life when our steps should be strong in the Lord our God.  Arrogance does not equal holiness and that is not what I am speaking of.  I am speaking of an inner strength that has its origin and foundation in the Lord and His mighty Word.  From such strength comes an outer mettle that is of the Lord. If one would memorize verse thirty-nine and couple it with Psalm 27:1 “The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid” we would be lions and not kittens.  God is our strength in times of trouble.  It is only in times of trouble that we can learn such strength. It has been well said, "The faith that hasn't been tested cannot be trusted." Our growth comes from the times when we are pressed and stretched. When the wicked rage against the righteous the God of the righteous shall be their salvation and their strength.We cannot learn this without conflict.

There is no helper like the Lord! And there is no deliverer like Jehovah God.  If we will only trust the one who is worthy of our trust we will know the real life.  Psalm 84:12 says, “O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.”  A word of strength indeed.
