Psalm 52

Steadfast Love of God 

Why do you boast of evil, O mighty man? The steadfast love of God endures all the day.
2 Your tongue plots destruction, like a sharp razor, you worker of deceit.
3 You love evil more than good,and lying more than speaking what is right. Selah

O Father, your steadfast love endures forever. Your grace rained on the weak and the strong, calling us to repentance of sin. You gave us hope of salvation through Jesus Christ, our Savior. Your laws guard our souls against falling away from our tested faith.

Those who boast of evil, plot destruction, and love themselves more than Your word, are deceiving themselves. The unrighteous and unbelievers will not inherit a place in heaven but will receive your divine justice in this life or at your return. O Mighty God, your saving grace reaches the unsaved souls, and no gates can stop it.

O Deceitful Tongue! 

4 You love all words that devour,  O deceitful tongue. 5 But God will break you down forever;
he will snatch and tear you from your tent; he will uproot you from the land of the living. Selah

My Savior and Brother, guard my heart against tearing another person down. Holy Spirit, tame and bridle my tongue not to cause pain to my brothers and sisters. It is a fact that unbelievers can hurt us deeply, and I expect it, but when we hurt a brother or sister in Christ, it causes a deeper grievance. Oh, Divine God, protect us from those who snatch and tear down with deceitful tongues. You taught us how to be loving, kind, and self-controlled through your Word (Galatians 5). For I cannot rein all my ungodly and impure thoughts, but your steadfast love calls me daily to serve my King, and I shall bow my knees once aging and ask for forgiveness. Give me strength! Give me strength. For I must carry my cross!

“But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh. 17 For the desires of the flesh are against the Spirit, and the desires of the Spirit are against the flesh, for these are opposed to each other, to keep you from doing the things you want to do.”

Galatians 5:16-17

Trust in God

6 The righteous shall see and fear, and shall laugh at him, saying,
7 “See the man who would not make God his refuge, but trusted in the abundance of his riches and sought refuge in his own destruction!

Oh righteous One, do not fear but laugh at those who mock, despise and shine you away. For Jesus Christ is your Friend and cares for you. In the end, you will rejoice with Christ in his glory and see how much all his promises were to redeem a people for his own. I thanked God, he saved my soul from destruction, and nobody can snatch me from his divine’s hands. I’m the daughter of a mighty heavenly King.

“My Father, who has given them to me, is greater than all, and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.”

John 10:29

House of God 

”But I am like a green olive tree in the house of God. I trust in the steadfast love of God  forever and ever. 9 I will thank you forever, because you have done it. I will wait for your name, for it is good, in the presence of the god.

I rejoiced in my Redeemer, knowing his steadfast love endures forever. My heart desires to serve my King, praying He teaches me understanding and wisdom from the Scriptures. To develop solid relationships with my brothers and sisters, seeking accountability, comfort, and gentle rebukes. O Lord, you’ve tested my faith a thousand times. You loved me. Corrected me, Carried me. Called me back into your arms (Word). Oh, Jesus, you taught me how to carry my cross and thankful I’ve grown spiritually. You’ve claimed, purchased, and redeemed my soul, and now I’m worthy of presenting myself to the Father.

Let’s Go Pray!

So I Will Trust You

VERSE 1
Almighty Maker, Universe shaper
You put the stars into space
Yet You descended, You have befriended
Those who had hated Your name, just like me

CHORUS
King of Glory, I know You love me
So I will trust You, yes I will trust You
God Almighty, You have saved me
So I will trust You, yes I will trust in You

VERSE 2
Lord over nations, King of Creation
Heaven and earth bow to You
I am Your child; I’ve been reconciled
With tender affection, You drew me to You

BRIDGE
How could I not trust my King
The One who has formed me and shaped me
I will rejoice and will sing
For the One who has made me has saved me
