Isaiah 26:4 (NAS)
Trust
in the LORD forever, For in GOD the LORD, we have an everlasting Rock.
Isaiah 26:4 (NIVUS)
Trust
in the LORD forever, for the LORD, the LORD, is the Rock eternal.
Finding
security in this world can sometimes be a difficult thing. Some people's
security is in stocks and bonds; some look for it in their friends and family.
Others feel secure in their workout programs. And some try to find it in their
careers or occupations. Although all of these can cause a person to be
secure for a short time, none of these will last forever.
There is only
one source of peace and security that is everlasting. It is important to
put your trust and confidence in Jehovah the Lord. He will always
continue and remain. You can always feel safe with Him and He can make you
bold, even when you feel fearful. He can make you appear careless, even
though you have many cares.
You have
been told not to covet or to be greedy, but you can be both of these in
spending time with the Lord. You should desire and long for Him.
Crave Him as your daily food and drink.
Jehovah is
the Lord Eternal. As you keep your eyes on and follow Him, you will advance. In
Him, you have a future. He conceals and hides you, so that you are perpetually
safe and secure. He is like a rocky cliff and a stone boulder for you.
