“For who is God, but the Lord?
And who is a rock, except our God?—
the God who equipped me with strength
and made my way blameless.
He made my feet like the feet of a deer
and set me secure on the heights.”
– Psalm 18:31-33
What God did for David throughout his life, He does for all His children. He’ll do it for you! God – the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – is the one and only solid rock. When we build our lives on Him, we stand on solid ground no matter how shaky the rest of the world around us is. Good times, bad times, highs, lows – God will give you strength to endure them all. His steadfast love and faithfulness will not fail or fade away.
If Jesus is your Lord, then the Spirit of God lives in you. You have been made righteous through Christ and now the Spirit gives you the power to resist temptation and live blamelessly in God’s eyes. This fallen, sin-wracked world will be unstable until Jesus returns. Don’t build your life on wealth that can disappear, status that can be lost, a job that can disappear, or relationships that can end in a number of ways.
Build your life on Jesus Christ! Draw near to God and find your strength in Him. Understand your identity in Him. Ground yourself in your life as a beloved child of God! Then you will have the steady feet of a deer even at the highest peak of a mountain. You will be able to endure and glorify God no matter how things are going in your day-to-day life. You will be a testimony of God’s mercy, grace, patience, love, and faithfulness. #FollowJesus
