Depending on the Lord

Scripture Isaiah 10:20 And it shall come to pass in that day That the remnant of Israel, And such as have escaped of the house of Jacob, Will never again depend on him who defeated them, But will depend on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, in truth.

Observation: Who do we depend on? Is it our spouse, parents, children, friends, politicians or pastor? There is no one here on earth at one time or another that won’t let us down. We as humans have a sinful nature and can’t be depended on. There is only one that is fully trustworthy and deserves all of our obedience and trust.

Application: I need to depend on my Lord and His word. God puts on my heart what is His will for my life and I must follow that. No matter who is in my life I need to depend only on my God for direction. Whatever decision I need to make I first need to seek God’s counsel before proceeding.

Prayer: My Lord I am your servant. I ask that you command me and direct me in all you desire me to do. May I always wait for your timing and direction before moving forward.
