"For the Lord is our judge, the Lord is our lawgiver, the Lord is our king; he will save us."
Isaiah 33:22
I really like this verse. It is confident in the Lord, and I think that is something that we can all work on. It kind of reminds me of Isaiah 8:12-13, which talks about how we don't have to fear what other people fear. All we need to fear is God. And, like Christ's yoke (Matthew 11:20), I believe that God's fear is a light burden. Kind of like being worried about getting grounded for staying out too late as opposed to being in a life-threatening situation. God's fear is of chastisement and correction rather than harm and destruction. :)
Today, let's work on having some rock solid confidence in God, knowing all of the things that he does for us, and that as we accept his role in our lives as judge, lawgiver, and king, and all of the other things in the gospel... we can't just accept his existence. We also need to accept his correction and guidance, his blessings, and his promises to us. He will surely save us, and bring us to the perfect day (Proverbs 4:18).
