Unwavering
APRIL 9, 2020
The Lord has promised good things.
Numbers 10:29
Recommended Reading: 2 Peter 1:2-4
In his commentary on the book of Joshua, John Calvin wrote, “Our faith, unless founded solely on [God’s] promise, must be continually wavering…. Faith ought properly to recline on the truth of God alone.”[1]
Are you troubled today? The Bible says, “For in the time of trouble He shall hide me in His pavilion” (Psalm 27:5).
Do you feel weak? The Lord declares, “My strength is made perfect in weakness” (2 Corinthians 12:9).
Are you anxious about how a situation will work out? Proverbs 3:5-6 says: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths.”
For every pulsing thought, there is a pulsating Scripture. There’s always a Bible verse waiting to be requisitioned to your need. Search it out and write it on the tablet of your mind. If our faith is founded solely on God’s promises, we’ll be unwavering.
That which God promises to us in word he seals by act.
John Calvin
