Confident in God
Psalm 108:1
My heart is confident, God; I will sing; I will sing praises with the whole of my being.
This psalm is a combination of Psalm 57 and Psalm 60. It was apparently compiled to use as a praise proclamation within the worship service. In its message we see the faithfulness of God exalted and complete confidence that He will give victory.
God responds to faith – not to need. We can complain about our problems all day long and never see any change. When we complain, we exalt our need over the power of God. If we want God to move, we must come before Him with confidence, believing that He exists and He will reward those who earnestly seek Him, according to Hebrews 11:6.
Start believing God will answer your prayers, and look for Him in every situation. He has promised He will never leave us nor forsake us, and He is working in the midst of your problem somewhere. Ask Him to show you His glory – where He is working and what He is doing. Sometimes, the change we really need is a change of perspective. Be confident that God is working all things together for your good and His glory, and your problem is somehow a part of His greater plan. You will be victorious! Sing His praises now, and proclaim your victory.
God dwells in the praises of His people, and when we praise Him, His presence goes to work on our behalf. I’ll give you one guess as to who dwells in our complaining and grumbling. If that is what comes forth from our mouth, then the enemy has room and authority to work against us. Choose to praise God for your victory today, and be confident in His love for you.
Have a blessed day!
