This title gives me a great visual of those who trust completely in the Lord...they are unshakable. Regardless of what happens in life, they know that God is in control and therefore they cannot be torn down. Consider the following passage:
Psalm 125: 1-2
Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion.
It cannot be shaken; it remains forever.
Jerusalem - the mountains surround her.
And the Lord surrounds His people,
both now and forever.
This certainly doesn't mean that Gods people won't come upon hard times. Nor does it mean that we should put on a front whenever we face life's difficulties. Because we are all experiencing the same thing....life....with the same emotions.
Our circumstances don't have to define who we are, but God can use them to take us where he wants us to be. We can trust that the Lord will surround his people...he says so!
What does it mean to "trust" in the Lord?
The Hebrew word for trust is batach, meaning confident, secure, sure. I think of these three words as an all encompassing trust. Put those words in place of "trust" in the passage above and read them, one at a time.
Now, take that trust and put it to work. Whatever happens this week whether it be at work, at home, with your finances and even the election, we can be confident, secure and sure in the Lord.
Inspiration
Faith isn't the ability to believe long and far into the misty future...It's simply taking God at his word and taking the next step.
We witness a miracle every time a child enters into life, but those who make their journey home across time and miles, growing within the hearts of those who wait to love them, are carried on the wings of destiny and placed among us by God's very own hands.
