Why boastest thou thyself in mischief, O mighty man? the goodness of GOD endureth continually.
The righteous also shall see, and fear, and shall laugh at him: Lo, this is the man that made not GOD his strength; but trusted in the abundance of his riches, and strengthened himself in his wickedness. But I am like a green olive tree in the house of GOD: I trust in the mercy of GOD for ever and ever. I will praise Thee for ever, because Thou hast done it: and I will wait on Thy Name; for it is good before Thy saints. (Psalms 52:1, 6-9)
It is only through our secure relationship with GOD through Jesus Christ and our faith in Him and His Word that we have strength to endure all that this world throws at us. Those that trust in themselves will falter when events spin out of their control. Those that trust in their wealth and riches will stumble when their fortunes change. Those that trust in others will eventually be disappointed when those others fail and let them down. Those that trust in their own goodness and good works will learn that they cannot measure up to the sinless perfection of GOD.
We look to the only one who can save us. GOD will never leave us or forsake us. He cannot lie, and His Word will endure to all generations. It is a sure foundation in which we trust, and GOD's promise of Salvation in Jesus Christ because of His finished work on the Cross of Calvary is just as sure for He will not fail, and will save to the uttermost all those that come to Him in belief and repentance.
We worship Him for He is worthy of all our praise. As Creator He has made us and upholds all things with the Word of His power. As Redeemer, He has saved us out of our sIn, and in His Name we perservere and share the Good News of Eternal Life in Jesus Christ. As King, He will soon return for His own, and we will ever more be with the Lord.
Those that have never been born again cannot rest in that promise. GOD, who is not willing that any should perish, wants to establish a covenant relationship with you that is real and personal. Jesus loves you and wants you to believe in Him and receive by faith a brand new life of discipleship and fellowship with Him that is abundant and everlasting. Surrender to Him on His terms and trust Him for forgiveness of your sIn, and your Salvation in this life, and the next.
In Christ,
