"Do not fret because of evil doers. Be not envious toward wrong doers. For they will wither quickly like the grass, and fade like the green herbs." No man no matter his earthly power can thwart the plan of God to do good for His people. The most magnificent pile of earthly treasure has an eternal value of zero. Do not fret or envy."If God be for us, who can be against us?" If He is your Savior and Lord, you are the richest person on the earth.
"Trust in the Lord and do good." It is easy to tell how much a man or woman truly trusts God--do they live a life committed to doing good for others or getting "good" for themselves? Trust and obey.
"Feed off the faithfulness of God." Whose ability to meet your needs
are you relying on? Regardless of your circumstances are you content? "O
taste and see that the Lord is good."
"Delight yourself in the Lord." Is your only priority to please Him? "Rejoice in the Lord always and again I say rejoice."
"Commit your way to the Lord." Are you more concerned with what you believe He should be doing for you or are you more concerned with what you should be doing for Him? Do you follow Him? Or do you expect Him to follow you wherever you decide to go? "Though none go with me, still I must follow. No turning back; no turning back."
"Be still in the Lord and wait longingly for Him." Rest. Patiently. Do you believe that God's best is worth waiting for? "They that wait upon the Lord shall find their strength renewed."
The righteous: A life of faith, trust, obedience, a hunger for righteousness, delight, commitment, stillness, and longing. "Trust also in Him and He will do it."
