Trust in God
“In God I will praise his word, in God I have put my trust; I will not fear what flesh can do unto me.” Psalm 56:4
King David was a mighty king of Israel whom God chose to be the leader of His people. He was a man after God’s own heart. God used him mightily and was always with him, but this did not keep David from going through many battles and having many problems.
Furthermore, David knew the secret to victory was relying entirely on the Lord to bring victory. It was not difficult for him to praise the Lord!
Trusting in God accomplishes at least seven things:
1. Releases God to work 2. Forms a partnership (I Corinthians 3:9) 3. Fixes affiliation 4. Eliminates fear (I John 4:18) 5. Establishes security 6. Causes peace 7. Precipitates joy (Psalm 5:11).
David knew that what God had done before, He was able to do again. David knew that God never changes; He is still the same!
“For I am the Lord, I change not” Malachi 3:6.
