TRUST YE IN THE LORD FOR EVER.

 

September 29
 
Isaiah 26:4  
Trust ye in the LORD for ever: 
for in the LORD JEHOVAH is everlasting strength: 
 
We are often discouraged by the difficulties of the way, and cast down through the weakness of our faith; we look to creatures, instead of looking to the Lord; and reflect upon our weaknesses, instead of believing His promises, and trusting His faithfulness.
 
But the Lord our God should be the only and the constant object of our trust; His word warrants us to look to Him for all we need, both temporal and spiritual; and His character assures us that we cannot be disappointed.
 
He will appear for us, and make all His goodness pass before us.
 
If we connect prayer to God with trusting in God and waiting for God, it is impossible that we should be left in trouble, or be neglected in distress.
 
We may trust Him with the fullest confidence, and expect without doubting all He has promised to bestow.
 
Are you at this time tried, tempted, and distressed?
 
Casting your burden upon the Lord.
 
Commit your way unto Him; He will bring to pass His largest promises and your best desires.
 
Seek out His promises, confide in them, plead them with God, an expect their accomplishment.
 
Oh, trust in the Lord for ever!
 
Trust Him, He's faithful to His word,
His promise cannot fail;
He’ll never leave you nor forsake,
Or let your foes prevail;
Then trust His word, expect His grace
Until you see Him face to face.
 
James Smith
