“My Heart Is
Confident In You,
O God”

What or who are you putting your trust and confidence in? Money … People … or God?

Scripture

Psalm 57

7  My heart is confident in you, O God;
    my heart is confident.
    No wonder I can sing your praises!

¹⁰ For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens.
    Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.

¹¹ Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.
    May your glory shine over all the earth.

Observation

What or who are you putting your trust and confidence in? Money … People … or God?

Here are two very important truths from God’s Word about money and people:

• Money has wings and can quickly fly away.

 ⁵ In the blink of an eye, money can disappear, as if it grew wings and flew away like a bird. Proverbs 23:4

• People will eventually let you down.

³ Don’t look to men for help; their greatest leaders fail; Psalm 146:3

In contrast here are just a few of the promises God has for us when we put our trust in Him:
Even strong young lions sometimes go hungry, but those who trust in the Lord will lack no good thing. Psalm 34:10

God’s unfailing love is as high as the heavens. His faithfulness reaches to the clouds! Psalm 57:10

It is better to take refuge in the Lord than to trust in people. Psalm 118:8

Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding;
 in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight. Proverbs 3:5-6

“But blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. Jeremiah 17:7

But those who trust in the Lord will find new strength. They will soar high on wings like eagles. They will run and not grow weary. They will walk and not faint. Isaiah 40:31

Application

Today I will put my faith in trust in the Lord and in Him alone. I want to soar like an eagle. How about you?

Prayer

Heavenly Father, my heart is confident in You, O God; my heart is confident. No wonder I can sing your praises! For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.  May your glory shine over all the earth.
