Psalm 89:14 “Righteousness and justice are the foundation of Your throne;love and faithfulness go before You.” (NIV)
Has life ever turned against you where you feel like you are at the bottom? David was there in Psalm 119:25a when he said, “I am laid low in the dust” (NIV) The path through times like this seem obscure, but the way through the morass leaves you the choice of going it alone without God or with Him; choosing man’s ways or God’s ways; trusting in God’s providential plan or creating your own. When you choose God, you are building your foundation on solid rock! In Matthew 7:24, Jesus
Psalm 36:5-9 “Your love, O LORD, reaches to the heavens, Your faithfulness to the skies. Your righteousness is like the mighty mountains, Your justice like the great deep. O LORD, You preserve both man and beast. How priceless is Your unfailing love! Both high and low among men find refuge in the shadow of Your wings. They feast on the abundance of Your house; You give them drink from Your river of delights. For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.” (NIV)
If you know someone who struggles in choosing God or the ways of the world, forward them this devotion as a blessing for their growth in Christ.
