WILL HE? ........

PSALM 125:1-5

(1)  They that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.  (2)  As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the LORD is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.  (3)  For the rod of the wicked shall not rest upon the lot of the righteous;  lest the righteous put forth their hands unto iniquity.  (4)  Do good, O LORD, unto those that be good, and to them that are upright in their hearts.  (5)  As for such as turn aside unto their crooked ways, the LORD shall lead them forth with the workers of iniquity:  but peace shall be upon Israel.

COMMENTARY:

Brethren in the Lord,  the psalmist encourages us to trust in the Lord;  for the Lord will not allow the wishes of the wicked to come to pass in the life of the righteous: he will not allow their wicked devises to afflict his children, and to make the righteous stumble.

For example, when a believer in Christ is going through a storm, whether (loss of employment,  foreclosure, bankruptcy, etc.);  the believer will have to   (a)  pray for power to persevere through the storm;  (a)  have faith in the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ;  (c)  be trustful in prayers;  (d)  have patience; and wait for his grace and manifestation.

(Isaiah 50:10)  Who is among you that feareth the lord, that obeyeth the voice of his servant, that walketh in darkness, and hath no light?  let him trust in the name of the LORD, and stay upon his God.


CONCLUSION:

Brethren, the Lord uses storms of life, to prove us wealthy of his callings;  he will not leave us alone when we wither a storm;  but will deliver us, when we call upon him:  he will not leave us hopeless, and helpless lest we fall a prey to the enemy.  The Lord will be good to his people, and will surely deliver them from all storms of life!

Are you in a storm today?   If you are, Pray without ceasing;  Jesus, is on his way to rescue you by his Blood!

Amen and Amen!
