Trustworthy

Who is God? What is He like? Let’s turn to God’s own Word to see what He says about Himself.

Psalm 146:7-10 says, “The Lord sets the prisoners free; the Lord opens the eyes of the blind. The Lord lifts up those who are bowed down; the Lord loves the righteous. The Lord watches over the sojourners; he upholds the widow and the fatherless, but the way of the wicked he brings to ruin. The Lord reigns forever.”

So what does that mean for you and for me. Let’s put ourselves into these verses and see. The Lord sets us free from bondage to sin and evil. The Lord opens our eyes so that we can see the truth. When we are troubled or humiliated, the Lord lifts us up and restores our joy. The Lord loves when we walk with Him. When we are searching for truth amidst our fears, the Lord is near and watches over us. When we feel alone and weak, the Lord draws us near to Him and protects us. He will protect us from the evil that surrounds us, but if we don’t turn from our evil ways we will suffer. He is Lord God Almighty forever.

This is the God that we can trust with our lives. This is the God that we can depend upon.
