Psalms 37:5-6 (ESV Strong's)
5 Commit your way to the LORD;
trust in him, and he will act.
6 He will bring forth your righteousness as the light,
and your justice as the noonday.
He Will Act!!
We always wonder and often ask, “Where is God?” In the time of great stress and strife and fear, the world claims God is absent. They like to disregard God during times of feast and complain He is not present in times of famine. In the above passage we see that God has given us assurance that He does and will act. Our part is to simply rely on Him and allow Him to do the “action” He wants to do. He does not promise that we will “see” His acting on our behalf. He does not promise that the acting will be what we want or what we would do. He only promises that He will act in a way that is according to His plan and good for us. He states in this passage that He will bring out our righteousness and our justice. Just so we realize, in other parts of Scripture we learn that we have NO righteousness and we have NO justice. That means what God wants to bring forth to us and in us will be the work of Christ’s righteousness and justice in us. We are to trust and believe and put our absolute faith in God. God does act by producing the person of Christ within us.
My 2025 Theme Verses: Ezra 7:10 (ESV) For Ezra had set his heart to study the Law of the LORD, and to do it and to teach his statutes and rules in Israel. Daniel 1:8 (ESV) But Daniel resolved that he would not defile himself with the king’s food, or with the wine that he drank. Therefore he asked the chief of the eunuchs to allow him not to defile himself.
