TRUST IN GOD - 2

Proverbs 30: 5

Every word of GOD is pure; He is a shield unto those who put their trust in Him.

The NIV says that every word of GOD is flawless; the KJV original version says that every word of GOD is purified. No matter what translation you use, the intent of the writer of Proverbs is very clear; the Word of the LORD is without error, flawless, pure and purified. When GOD says a word, He stands by His word and will do what He says He will do.

When GOD says that "He is a shield to those who put their trust in Him", He means it. Psalm 115: 9-11 says this, "O Israel, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield. O House of Aaron, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield. Ye that fear the LORD, trust in the LORD; He is their help and their shield." The LORD is faithful to His promises and will help and shield those who trust in Him.

"It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in man. It is better to trust in the LORD than to put confidence in princes." (Psalm 118: 8, 9). It is time for all of us to make our decision, the LORD has set before us life and good, evil and death. He urges us, passionately, to choose life so that you and your children shall live. "But as for me, I trust in you, O LORD; I say, "You are my GOD". (Psalm 31:14).

JESUS passionately laid down His life so that we would be able to come boldly to the Throne of Grace and find mercy in the time of need. By the Blood of JESUS we are reconciled to GOD and only through His Blood can we find union with GOD.
