Blessed be the Lord, Who daily loads us with benefits, The God of our salvation!
Selah
Psalms 68:19
Being in Christ doesn’t mean being exempt from the trials, burdens, or hard times in this world. We all have to go through it, but the advantage of being with God is that you don’t have to go through it all alone. He is with you DAILY.
This verse talks about the divine provision and daily blessings that God bestows upon His people. It reflects the truth that God has never stopped being who He is. He is our constant support, providing both material and spiritual gifts. Even in the past, He has given His people victory. And with that, we should celebrate as well, recognizing that God’s generosity is not limited but abundant and ongoing.
We do not, however, need to know on our worst days how God will sustain us for a lifetime. We do not need to know even how he will sustain us tomorrow. We need to know, even with a mustard seed of faith, that He will get us through today.
God watched over Noah when the earth was flooded (Genesis 8:1).
He made a covenant with Abraham to bless, protect, and multiply his descendants (Genesis 17:4–7).
He took care of the Israelites when they wandered through the wilderness (Deuteronomy 2:7).
He gave David comfort and strength when people were trying to kill him. (1 Samuel 30:6)
Every day, he guards orphans and protects widows (Psalm 68:5).
He settles the solitary in a home and leads prisoners to freedom (Psalm 68:6).
He meets the needy in their trouble and gently bears them up (Psalm 68:10).
If God did these to them before, will He not do it for us again? If Christ has carried our sin to the grave, will he not also carry us through today? If God has raised Jesus from the dead, will he not also raise our heads above today’s high waters?
Our dreams falter and fail; God does not. Our hearts grow weak; His steadfast love is from everlasting to everlasting. Our hopes rise and fall; God’s mercies come at their appointed time every morning—and they will carry us through today.
