"The Steadfast, Secure Heart"

“The Steadfast, Secure Heart”

 

Surely the righteous will never be shaken; they will be remembered forever.   They will have no fear of bad news; their hearts are steadfast, trusting in the Lord.  Their hearts are secure, they will have no fear; in the end they will look in triumph on their foes.         Psalm 112:6-8

 

Who is it, who will NEVER be SHAKEN?  Who will have NO FEAR of BAD NEWS?  Who’s HEART is STEADFAST, TRUSTING in the Lord?   Who’s HEART is SECURE and they will have NO FEAR at all, and in the END they will LOOK in TRIUMPH on their foes?  Our Scripture says it is the RIGHTEOUS. 

 

Notice it doesn’t say that they will have NO FEAR that their circumstances would bring BAD NEWS, but they don’t FEAR when they are encountered with BAD NEWS.  And the reason is, their HEART is STEADFAST, TRUSTING in the LORD.  It’s EASY to SAY we TRUST GOD for whatever we may face, NOW or in the FUTURE, but it’s HARD to actually TRUST Him, when we come upon HARD, almost UNBEARABLE times.  We seem to TURN to another individual, for guidance, but we still have FEAR that whatever we are FACING will OVERTAKE us. 

 

The TRULY RIGHTEOUS PERSON, will NOT BE SHAKEN!  How is that POSSIBLE, you may ask.  If they have the RIGHT RELATIONSHIP with God, they KNOW that He is NOT ONLY ABLE, but will bring you PEACE in the MIDST of the STORM.  You can be ASSURED that He will NEVER FAIL you, nor FORSAKE you.  He doesn’t promise us that we won’t have to walk through the FIRE, but He promises that He WILL BE WITH US, ALL the WAY.  The reward for a STEADFAST and SECURE HEART is to, in the end, be able to LOOK in TRIUMPH on our foes, because we have the VICTORY in JESUS CHRIST. 

 

Do you have a STEADFAST and SECURE HEART?  If you DO, it means that your FAITH is also STEADFAST and SECURE, and you can TRUST GOD to HELP you through EVERY SITUATION.  If you have NOT given your HEART and LIFE to God, then you are NOT a RIGHTEOUS PERSON, and are facing the WORST scenario EVER, spending ALL ETERNITY in HELL, with ALL its HORRORS, and NO WAY of ESCAPE.  But if you will CRY OUT to GOD, and TURN AWAY FROM your sinful lifestyle, and TURN TO Him, with a TRUE REPENTANT HEART.  He WILL HEAR YOU, when you CONFESS your sins to Him.  And ask Him for His FORGIVENESS.  You MUST BELIEVE, with ALL your HEART that, Jesus died for YOU, and that He is ALIVE in HEAVEN, making intercession, for you, before God.  Then you MUST ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and let your HEART be STEADFAST and SECURE, with NO FEAR!  Do this NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!!!
