During my meditation time this morning, I read the 24th Psalm which starts off by saying "The Earth is the Lords." I've read this passage of scripture so many times, but today it really hit home for me. If we really get it into our spirit that the Earth and all of its inhabitants belong to God, we should never have any cause to worry. We spend so much time wondering where the state of this world is going. We worry about finances, if our children will be safe and what the future will hold. We have to realize that God is the supreme ruler and He has everything under control. Sometimes we go about life thinking that things happen haphazardly or by chance. God knows exactly where he wants us to be, and if we take the time to listen, we will never have to wonder if we are making the right choices. God will direct our path.
Bad things do happen in life, but we can choose to move forward instead of letting tragedy consume us. Because the Earth is the Lords, we should have confidence that his will is going to be done. If you are a child of God, you are on the winning side. Stop worrying every time you see a news report. Don't listen to the reports that say there won't be enough Social Security in the future. When God gets ready to bless you, the critics can say there is no hope in sight, but God will pour out his abundant blessings in your life.
We have to keep reminding ourselves that we serve the true and living God. He is so powerful that his words brought this entire world into existence. If you think about God like that, how could you ever worry? When you put your trust in God and submit to his will, you can have confidence that your future will be brighter and more blessed than you could ever dream of.
Don't let the enemy deceive you. There is no cause to fear. If you choose Christ, don't worry, you will come out victorious!
