Our Rightful Source

I like the way when God abundantly clear that He wants us to put our trust only in Him and not in man. He goes so far as to say that those who put their trust in people will be cursed. Isaiah 2:22 says, “Stop trusting in man, who has but a breath in his nostrils. Of what account is he?” King David also says in Psalm 146:3 “Do not put your trust in prince, in mortal men who cannot save.” The verses above reassure us that those who put their trust in God will not have to fear or worry in a year of drought, because they will always be fresh and fruitful!

Job can be our good thing, but God doesn’t want us making it as our source. If we do, when we lose it, we’ll have no means of it support. On the other hand, if we make God our provider, even if we are jobless for a time, our needs will still be met. Spouses and parents can be our wonderful gifts, but depending on them of all our needs can be disastrous if they’re taken from us.

The good news is that God is willing and able to be all that we need in this life. If you are looking for stability and security in this ever-changing world, make our unchangeable God the source of all your needs.

Take time today to think about those you rely on. Would you be devastated if they were removed from your life? Reflect on Psalm 146:3. Begin to ask God to build your faith and ability to trust and rely on Him for your every need.
