Subject- “ Why Trust In The Lord”
Sermon # 2
Text- Isaiah 26-12-21
Intro- Last Sunday night we showd that we trust in the Lord for the following reasons...
1. Because of the greatness of the Lord... vs 5
2. Because of his rightful judgements. Vs. 7-8
3. Because of the peace he gives us..vs 12
I hope to finish this chapter tonight if we can. I need not depend much on the fact that often we trust in ourselves, or some other person more than we do the Lord.
I... “WE TRUST IN THE LORD BECAUSE HE IS OUR LORD...VS 13 “ O LORD OUR GOD”
Psalm 20:7 Some [trust] in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the LORD our God.
Note what Isaiah says...
1st. They recognize their captivity... “other Lords have been over us”
We too can become enslaved by others than the Lord our God, it is he that hath set us free from the captive and we need not go back under them again but we do a lot of times...
Gal 1-4-9
2nd. Their solid commitment to the one and only true God.. “ we will make mention of thy name...vs 13
What other name do we have to trust in... The hymn writer says... Tis so sweet to trust in Jesus just to trust his crimson flow, just in simple faith to trust just to know that he is mine...
