Bible Verse of The Day – 12-9-24

Psalm 139:1-4 (LSB) 139 O Yahweh, You have searched me and known me. 2 You know when I sit down and when I rise up; You understand my thought from afar. 3 You scrutinize my path and my lying down, And are intimately acquainted with all my ways. 4 Even before there is a word on my tongue, Behold, O Yahweh, You know it all.

We wear our smiles and confident looks around our friends, work associates, and classmates.

We post our pictures on social media, sharing our best times and shining moments for others to see.

And all appears to be well with us.

But God knows what we are holding onto inside, where no one else sees.

The struggles with fear. The doubts. The insecurities. The thoughts that torment us and rob us of our joy and our peace.

He knows it all.

But better than that, He holds the answers to our questions and the solutions to our problems.

He knows our going in and coming out. He knows our sitting down and our rising. He knows our thoughts before we think them, and our words before we speak them.

He is just waiting for us to bring these things to Him and surrender them to Him so He can help us.

For some reason we tend to hold tightly to those things that want to tear us down. We guard them like secret treasure when, in fact, they are like an enemy within, working to tear us down and destroy us.

Why do we do this?

It is time for us to surrender these things to God and let Him walk us through whatever steps He leads us to take so we can find freedom from them, as led by the Holy Spirit.

He will give us the courage and strength to do this if we allow Him to.

Let’s allow Him to.

Amen
