Stability

"As for God, His way is blameless; the word of the Lord is tried; He is a shield to all who take refuge in Him.  For who is God, but the Lord?  And who is a rock, except our God, the God who girds me with strength and makes my way blameless?  He makes my feet like hinds' feet, and sets me upon my high places.  He trains my hands for battle, so that my arms can bend a bow of bronze.  You have also given me the shield of Your salvation and Your right hand upholds me; and Your gentleness1 (condescension) makes me great.  You enlarge my steps under me, and my feet have not slipped."  Psalm 18:30-36


        Walk in My ways, and your feet will not stumble.  You are living in a day when "truth has stumbled in the streets"2but I will make your footing firm.  Fix your eyes upon Me, and I will be your STABILITY even when all around you ‘feels’ unstable. 


You do not have to believe according to how it 'feels'
                                                        You can trust Me with what it IS


        I am in control, and you can take your stand on Me.  I am your Rock and Defense -that your feet do not slip.  Do not rely upon yourself (you don’t have to); rely upon Me.

Take heart.


"And He will be the stability of your times, a wealth of salvation, wisdom and knowledge; the fear of the Lord is his treasure."  Isaiah 33:6


(gentleness= humility and patience, mildness, tenderness, characteristic of God that fosters growth)
Isaiah 59:14

Good word. We seek for stability in every thing around us and it seems that outside of God, there is no stability. Only the Word of God makes sense of the world!
