Bible Verse for August 1st.

 

But I am trusting you, O Lord, saying, “You are my God!”

 

Psalms 31:14

NLT Bible

 

 

As I was meditating on this verse, I kept mulling over the words of this well-loved song, “through it all, through it all, I’ve learned to trust in Jesus, I’ve learned to trust in God. Through it all, through it all, I’ve learned to depend upon His Word”. Oftentimes, we put our trust in people and things that disappoint and fail us. God never does! We can trust Him at all times, in good times and also in bad, in sickness, during financial crises, when facing relationship issues and a host of other difficulties. When life seems to be spiralling out of control and we’re overwhelmed, with nowhere to turn, trust Him to make a way and turn things around. Job was one man who trusted God in spite of all the trials and misfortunes he faced.

 

God is our Refuge, Provider and Protector! As this verse says, He is our God and therefore we can trust Him to see us through all the stormy times we may encounter. Trust Him to answer and meet all our needs, whether it’s for healing, for effecting change in wayward children, for employment opportunities as well as opening ‘shut doors! Trust Him with our future! The key is to keep on trusting Him through every difficulty, storm and trial. Psalm 40:4 tells us that we are blessed when we trust God. 

 

Thank you Lord that You are my God! Through it all, no matter what I face and come what may, I trust in You alone. I love you, Jesus. Amen!

 

Be Blessed!

The Spirit of the Sovereign LORD is upon me,

For the LORD has anointed me

To bring good news to the poor.

 

He has sent me to comfort the broken-hearted

And to proclaim that captives will be released

And prisoners will be freed.

 

He has sent me to tell those who mourn

That the time of the LORD’s favor has come,

And with it, the day of God’s anger against their enemies.

 

To all who mourn in Israel,

He will give a crown of beauty for ashes,

 

A joyous blessing instead of mourning,

Festive praise instead of despair.

 

In their righteousness, they will be like great oaks

That the LORD has planted for His own glory.

Isaiah 61:1-3 NLT
