WE TRUST IN THE NAME OF THE LORD



"Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will trust in the name of the Lord our God." — Psalm 20:7

In our world that values financial power and human achievements, this scripture reminds us that the only path to certain victory and eternal hope lies in God alone. While others may rely on earthly resources or human systems, we are called to place our trust in something far greater— the name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

In this verse, "chariots and horses" represent earthly power, human ability, and man-made innovations. In biblical times, they symbolized military strength and preparation for war. Today, they may refer to wealth, political systems, technological advancements, or personal education. Though these resources have value, their effectiveness is limited, and they are only temporary.

The name of the Lord in this verse signifies God’s character, power, and promises. Trusting in His name means relying on His unchanging nature and His faithfulness to fulfill all He has promised.

When we say we trust in God, it means:
1. Relying on His Strength: God is all-powerful, and His might is unmatched.
2. Believing in His Faithfulness: If He promises, He fulfills. He has never failed.
3. Acknowledging His Sovereignty: God reigns over all, and everything obeys and honors Him.

By trusting in His name, we acknowledge that He is our ultimate provider, protector, and leader. Trusting God brings boundless peace and confidence. When we depend on Him, we gain strength, wisdom, and guidance that no person or thing on earth can offer.

So, when you face life’s challenges, ask yourself: Where is my trust? Allow the message of Psalm 20:7 to inspire you and give you the courage to place your hope in the unfailing name of our Lord Jesus Christ.

Prayer: Lord, I put my trust in You. Because you are faithful and unfailing. Amen.

Choose love over judgment

"I do not set aside the grace of God; for if righteousness comes through the law, then Christ died in vain.” Galatians 2:21 NKJV   The message today is clear and very brief. God reminds us that our righteousness is not attained through our actions but by faith in Jesus Christ. If our righteousness is obtained by faith and not by deeds, why do we judge each other? Why do we point fingers? Why do we gossip? The mouths of Christians have become very quick to judge others when they make mistakes. Let's not judge others, especially when they make mistakes. Remember that the weaknesses you judge in others, you also have, and often yours are worse than those you judge. The word of God says, "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Matthew 7:1-2."   Secondly, let's not consider ourselves righteous and better than others. The word of God says, "for all...

With God, Everything is possible

"casting all your cares [all your anxieties, all your worries, and all your concerns, once and for all] on Him, for He cares about you [with deepest affection, and watches over you very carefully]." 1 Peter 5:7 AMP Our God is a powerful God, capable of helping us in every situation where we need His assistance. As a believer and someone who relies on God, you need to learn how to entrust all your problems to Him. Many Christians have not been able to fully surrender their concerns to God. Within their hearts, you will find that they retain a part of the responsibility. It's like saying, "I will handle it up to this point, and then I will leave the rest to God to finish." This isn't surrendering the entire matter to God. Nowadays, when someone says, "I've left this matter to God," it's often because they've exhausted their own methods of solving it and have given up. Some people say this not because they believe that the problem will now...

It serves as an affirmation of the believer's unwavering faith in the Lord's ability to provide security and refuge in times of trouble. In times of uncertainty and challenges, may you find solace and strength in the Lord.

Remember that you are not alone in your struggles. God, your refuge and fortress, is with you every step of the way. He is your shelter in the midst of life's storms, your stronghold in times of adversity. Trust in His steadfast love and faithfulness, knowing that He is always present to protect and guide you.
