Psalms 40:4
Read this verse in depth with cross-references and study notes
True blessedness belongs to those who make the Lord their trust.
David pronounces blessing on those who trust in the Lord rather than turning to pride or false gods. Making the Lord our trust is an active choice, not a passive feeling. It means deliberately placing confidence in God instead of self, others, or idols. This choice positions us to receive God's richest blessings.
Apply This Today
Make a conscious choice today to trust the Lord rather than turning to anything or anyone else for security.
Prayer
Lord, I make You my trust today. Blessed are those who trust in You - may I know that blessing as I rely on You alone. Amen.
