My Heart
Is Confident
In You, O God

This Confidence Is Like A Strong And Trustworthy Anchor For Our Souls.

Scripture

Psalms 108

My heart is confident in you, O God;
    no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart!
Wake up, lyre and harp!
    I will wake the dawn with my song.
I will thank you, Lord, among all the people.
    I will sing your praises among the nations.
For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens.
    Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.
    May your glory shine over all the earth.


Observation


Don’t put your confidence in politicians. I don’t think I even have to mention that with all the untruths that are being spewed out during this pre-election period. What I would give for just one honest politician! I am sure that there has to be one out there somewhere!

Don’t even put your confidence completely in us pastors! We too are human and we will also let you down. Hopefully we will be a lot more sincere and honest than a politician, but we are still far from perfect.

So today my heart is confident in only One Person – the Lord Jesus Christ.

    But Jesus remains a priest forever; his priesthood will never end. [25] Therefore he is able, once and forever, to save everyone who comes to God through him. He lives forever to plead with God on their behalf. Hebrews 7:24-25 Hebrews 6:18-20
   “ … Therefore, we who have fled to him for refuge can take new courage, for we can hold on to his promise with confidence.  [19] This confidence is like a strong and trustworthy anchor for our souls. It leads us through the curtain of heaven into God's inner sanctuary. [20] Jesus has already gone in there for us. He has become our eternal High Priest in the line of Melchizedek.


 Application


I will thank the Lord among His people today as I go to church. How about you?

Prayer

My heart is confident in you, O God;
    no wonder I can sing your praises with all my heart!
Wake up, lyre and harp!
    I will wake the dawn with my song.
I will thank you, Lord, among all the people.
    I will sing your praises among the nations.
For your unfailing love is higher than the heavens.
    Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds.
Be exalted, O God, above the highest heavens.
    May your glory shine over all the earth. Psalm 108:1-5
