My Warhorse or God's Love?

 Scripture:

"Don't count on your warhorse to give you victory - for all its strength, it cannot save you. But the Lord watches over those who fear him, those who rely on his unfailing love." Psalm 33:17-18

Observation:

The Psalmist reminds us here that we can't count on our own weapons and strategies. For all their strength, they cannot save us. God watches for those who fear him and rely on His unfailing love. God's love is stronger than any weapons or plans we can come up with. Our trust must be in him and not ourselves. When we truly trust Him, He will fight our battles.

Application:

There are times when we need to step back from situations and let God handle them. Our greatest schemes and strategies are nothing compared to God's powerful hand stepping in and dealing with those who are against us. We must learn to surrender completely to God and let Him fight our battles and bring our victory. We give Him our all, then trust Him with our lives.

Prayer:

Father, help me to trust You more and more each day. Teach me to walk in faith and confidence in You and Your word. Help me to not defend myself, but to rely on You in every situation. My life is in Your hands and I trust You completely.

Yours,
Jeff
