Have you read Psalm 34 recently?
“I sought the LORD, and He heard me,
And delivered me from all my fears.
They looked to Him and were radiant,
And their faces were not ashamed.”
Psalm 34:4-5
God gives a ton of promises to His believers through King David’s words here. The caveat is – we believers often need to believe to receive them.
No, it’s not works or trying harder. It IS getting to know the ONE who promised these great gifts to His children and trusting Him for His promises. And live like we are trusting Him – not just lip service.
The Lord promised the Promise Land to the Israelites, but they did have to battle and contend for this great gift. It wasn’t handed to them easily, they had to trust, listen for direction, and yes, obey.
So, what has God promised you? Are you living like you believe He will come through? Read Psalm 34 and be super encouraged. And if you have never received a promise from the Lord Jesus, give this Psalm a look-over and hear what He might speak to your heart from it. It could rock your world.
