The trustworthiness of God

May the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob protect you! May he send you help from the sanctuary and give you support from Zion! May he remember all your offerings and regard with favor your burnt sacrifices! Selah May he grant you your heart's desire and fulfill all your plans! May we shout for joy over your salvation, and in the name of our God set up our banners! May the Lord fulfill all your petitions! Now I know that the Lord saves his anointed; he will answer him from his holy heaven with the saving might of his right hand. Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we trust in the name of the Lord our God. They collapse and fall, but we rise and stand upright. O Lord , save the king! May he answer us when we call.- Psalms 20:1‭-‬9 ESV

Pastor Travis Drake

How committed is God? Forever, till eternity. What extent will he go? Through torture and death. God is trustworthy because of the cross.

Who will we trust? In what will we trust? We are at war and our enemies are sin, Satan, and death. They are out to destroy us. Sin is not looking out for your good.

Are your finances under attack? Are your relationships under strain? Does your health feel like it is disintegrating? Is your mental health under pressure? God is there. He remembers us and fights for us. His people are under His protection.

But this isn't a magical incantation. God does not always deliver on our timeline. He does not always answer in what we would consider a timely manner. Sometimes we'll see God act on this life and in other cases, we might not see deliverance under we awake in heaven.

Who or what are you trusting in today?

1. Take a self assessment. (What is making you tense, anxious, and angry? This helps reveal what you are trusting in.)
2. Share of how God has helped us through tough times. Share of how God revealed himself or encouraged or matured us.
