Stop trusting in man, whose breath is in his nostrils; for of what account is he? - Isaiah 2:22.
God wants us to place all our
trust on Him at all situations instead of man. It is better to trust in the Lord than to put
confidence in man - Psalm 118:8. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than
to trust in man. It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in
princes - Psalm 118:8-9. Man often fails to keep promises but God’s promises
are everlasting and never fails. God is not human, that he should lie, not a
human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does
he promise and not fulfill? - Numbers 23:19.
Man is mortal whereas our God
is eternal and all powerful. Do not trust in princes, in mortal man, in whom
there is no salvation - Psalm 146:3. God promises to provide protection and
strength to all those who trust Him. Trust in him at all times, you people; pour
out your hearts to him, for God is our refuge - Psalm 62:8. Let us place all our
hope and trust in God who is the same yesterday, today and forever. In God,
whose word I praise - in God I trust and am not afraid. What can mere mortals
do to me? - Psalm 56:4.
As we place all our trust on God, we will be like a tree planted by the waters yielding fruits at all times. Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, And whose hope is the Lord. For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters, Which spreads out its roots by the river, And will not fear when heat comes; But its leaf will be green, And will not be anxious in the year of drought, Nor will cease from yielding fruit - Jeremiah 17:7,8.
PRAYER: Dear Lord, Help us to place
all our trust on You instead of man. In Jesus name we pray. Amen.
