Psalm 33:1-22
Key Verses: 33:20-22
“We put our hope in
the Lord. He is our help and our shield. Our heart rejoices in God because we
trust his holy name. Lord, let your faithful love surround us because we wait
for you.” CEV
We
are surrounded by God’s love, which will never abandon us or fail us. God is
with us, working to redeem the worst places in our lives. When we trust in the
Lord, we often times must wait for the Lord. We live in a time when we expect everything
to come quickly, if not immediately. Even Amazon does same day delivery now.
With God, we cannot expect everything to come right now. God’s faithfulness
takes time to work itself out in our lives. God is faithful to make all things
right, but somethings take time to work out. But even as we wait we can trust
that God is at work, that God is always faithful and is even now our help and
our shield. We can rejoice in God’s goodness in all things.
Thing to Think on
In what ways has
God been able to change bad things which have happened in your past to bring
about good? (this is redemption at work in your life)
Are there things
in your life which have not yet been redeemed?
Can you trust
that even now God is at work to make good come out of all the bad in your life?
How can you give
praise to God right now?
A Prayer for Today
Lord you are worthy of all
praise and honor. I know I can trust you to make all things right. I know you
work for good in this world. I know you are a good God and trust that you are
at work in all things. Help me to trust you to bring good to my todays, my
tomorrows, as well as my yesterdays. Help me to continue to rely on you as I continue
to wait for you to work. - Amen
