Verse of the Day, August 4, 2020
Psalm 118:5 KJV “5 I called upon the Lord in distress: the Lord answered me, and set me in a large place. 6 The Lord is on my side; I will not fear: what can man do unto me? 8 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in man. 9 It is better to trust in the Lord than to put confidence in princes.”
In good times and in troublous times, it is a worthy thing to call upon the name of the LORD. Many of the disciples, prophets, and people of old called upon the LORD in their distress.
They were delivered and so will we if we do so in faith. Why is this? The LORD is always on the side of them that fear Him, so we need not worry about what man can do to us.
Hence, it is better to trust in the LORD than to place confidence in men or princes. It’s repeatable; it is better to trust in the LORD ALMIGHTY than to place confidence in princes.
