The Lord is my light and my salvation; whom
shall I fear? the Lord is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be
afraid? 2 When the wicked, even mine enemies and my
foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. 3 Though
an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should
rise against me, in this will I be confident.
Today’s message is one encouraging us to have confidence in
the Lord because of who He is and His sovereign powers. We fear only God and we
be careful of evil men.
If the question was raised, why must we have confidence in
the Lord whom we cannot see, but man we do see? We are to have confidence in
the Lord because He has proven Himself to be trustworthy and faithful to His
promises. We have confidence in the Lord because He is the creator and
sustainer of all, which includes all human evil and good men. Evil men are
under God’s control and in God’s time He will bring evil men deeds to an end;
therefore, trust God and never doubt Him. When God says, I will take care of
you, trust Him. Cast all of our cares upon Him, and leave them with Him (Psalm
55:22, 1 Peter 5:7). More importantly, God did not give us a spirit of fear, but of power, and of love, and of a sound mind
(2 Timothy 1:7).
Fear only God, and trust Him for your
deliverance.
