🫱TRUST🫲

What time I am afraid, I will trust in thee. Psalms 56:3


Hebrews 13:6 (KJV) So that we may boldly say, The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear what man shall do unto me.

That we may boldly say. That word boldly  means that we might say with confidence with assurance of mind in the truth. What is the writer saying? I believe we have to back up and understand what we just have read and where the real truth is. True about brotherly love, about remembering those in bonds, about marriage how horonable it is, not forgetting what we have been promised “the Lord said that He would NEVER LEAVE US NOR WOULD HE FORSAKE US.”Can we say that with boldness, confidence because we know the real truth? I like what the writer says afterwards “The Lord is my helper, and I will not fear” fear what? “what man shall do unto me” When we place our confidence in the truth of God’s Word then we have the comfort of knowing God will take care of us. In the book of Daniel we read of 3 young men who stood for what they knew was true. The cost for doing so would be being burned to death by man. This is what those men had to say 

Daniel 3:16 (KJV) Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, answered and said to the king, O Nebuchadnezzar, we are not careful to answer thee in this matter.

Daniel 3:17 (KJV)  If it be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and he will deliver us out of thine hand, O king.

Daniel 3:18 (KJV)  But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up. Nebuchadnezzar was so angry that he had the furnace turned up and then he had those three young men thrown in. But a strange thing happened. Nebuchadnezzar saw not 3 men in the fire but 4 men and they were not being burned in the flames. 

Daniel 3:25 (KJV) He (Nebuchadnezzar) answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God. In the troublesome times of life, when things look hopeless God said I will not leave you.

John 14:18 (KJV) I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you. Remember this what He has done for others He will do for you. Mark 5:20 (KJV) And he (The man that had been delivered from a demon)departed, and began to publish in Decapolis how great things Jesus had done for him: and all men did marvel.

How many marvel at what God has done in our lives?
