TRUST IN GOD

Psalm 9: 10

And they who know Thy Name will put their trust in Thee;  for Thou, LORD, hast not forsaken those who seek Thee.

KNOW THE HOLY NAME AND SEEK HIS FACE

It is true, in the way of the Children of Israel, that to know the name of a person is to have influence with them. GOD revealed His Name to Moses and Moses revealed the Holy Name to the people. When the Psalmist says,"and they shall know Thy Name" he is saying that those who know the Holy Name will have influence with Him.

In Psalm 27: 8 the Psalmist says,When Thou said, "Seek ye My face", my heart said unto thee, "Thy face, LORD, will I seek". The Psalmist says at the end of Psalm 9: 10, "for Thou, LORD, hast not forsaken those who seek Thee." GOD has promised that when we seek Him with our whole heart, He will meet us face to face and deliver us from all our troubles. 

In the time of the Old Covenant, GOD revealed His Name as Eyeh Asher Eyeh ( I AM WHO I AM); the Hebrews knew GOD as YHWH (the Holy Name). YHWH was so Holy that they would not pronounce it, lest they would dishonor Him by pronouncing it wrongly, so they used other names to honor Him - Adonai, Jehovah, HASHEM, and others. In the time of the JESUS, and the New Covenant with GOD, JESUS revealed   Himself as the I AM.  "At the Name of JESUS, every knee shall bow of things in heaven, and things in earth and things under the earth, and that every tongue shall confess that JESUS Christ is LORD, to the glory of GOD the Father." (Philippians 2: 10, 11). For His Name is "far above all principality, and power, and might, and dominion, and  every name that is named, not only in this age, but also in that which is to come."( Ephesians 1: 21) 

We know the Holy Name, JESUS Christ the LORD; we see Him face to face, when we seek Him with our whole heart; therefore we have all reason to TRUST IN GOD.

JESUS CHRIST IS LORD
