Who is in charge here?

Wednesday, June 6, 2007 – 7:00 a.m.

Isaiah 33:6 (The Message) “God keeps your ways stable and secure – salvation, wisdom, and knowledge in surplus and best of all, Zion’s treasure – Fear of God!”

v. 8 (NIV) “The fear of the Lord is the key to this treasure.”

In the midst of a very evil world, where evil men are in control, and where everyone does what he pleases, you, God, keep your people stable and secure. Our treasure is You. All around us may be in utter chaos but when we trust in You, You are enough.

In the middle of our failing economy, empty apartments, not much income, You keep us going. I am grateful. Roy works too hard, and yes he worries, and I do too at times. But we both know You are our source of all we need.

You have promised to care for us in our old age – we are trusting you. Those who will survive will do so because of Isaiah 33;15 (Message)
Live right
Speak truth.
Despise exploitation,
refuse bribes, violence and evil amusements.

(v16) This is how we raise our standard of living! It is a safe and stable way to live. A nourishing and satisfying way to live.

Center your worship on God. God Himself is the place. Let God make all the decisions. He runs the place and He will keep us safe.
