Psalm 37:3<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><br>Trust is not automatic. Trust, quite frankly, is earned and it\u2019s based on several things. A past track<br>record reveals if a person is trustworthy, or not. Well, the only One I know of who has a perfect track<br>record, has already recorded it for us in His Word. The Bible has furnished us with the only perfect<br>record which, not only has built in provisions we can trust, but provisions in which God must adhere to.<br>In fact, the Covenant He has made in His own Blood, means that if He doesn\u2019t fulfill His Promise \u2013 He<br>would be forfeiting His own righteousness and therefore, guilty of lying, which would mean His own<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>destruction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>God promised that the Good Shepherd would lead us to Green Pastures and Pure Waters. The green<br>pastures represent the fellowship of likeminded believers we can confide in, those who know the Lord<br>and His Spirit. They trust in God; therefore, they are trustworthy. They Love God, therefore, they Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>those who God loves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The pure, still waters represent the pure Word of God that builds up our faith in the One who can be<br>trusted above all \u2013 that One is God. He is faithful to watch over His Word and fulfill it as we act on it.<br>The above scripture tells us to \u201c\u2026dwell in the land.\u201d What does that mean? Quite simply, it refers to the<br>Promised Land which God promised to the Jews when He made a Covenant with Abraham 4,000 years<br>ago. It represents the Promises of God to us in the New Covenant. So, this is telling us to Live in His<br>Promises. As we feed on His promises, we are also feeding on His faithfulness. Hebrews 10:23 tells us<br>that, \u201cHe\u00a0who\u00a0promised\u00a0is\u00a0faithful.\u201d Since we have a Father in heaven who has proved Himself faithful<br>let\u2019s refuse to worry. Worry is nothing more than meditating on the words of the devil. Let\u2019s feed on His<br>faithfulness and hide God\u2019s Word in our hearts, and walk confidently, enjoying the fullness of life He has provided for us in His Word!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With Love,<br>Pastor Tom<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-white-color has-black-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-0355c45bd867fdef7c54aeb15e4122d5\">Kingdom Business is Eternal, as are the rewards that come from God.
