because GOD the LORD is the Rock eternal

because GOD the LORD is the Rock eternal

Reference- Isaiah 26:3-4 remains true and steadfast today: "You will keep in perfect peace those whose minds are steadfast, because they trust in You. Trust in the Lord forever, for the Lord, the Lord himself, is the Rock eternal."

The Command: Trust - You've beautifully captured the heart of our walk with God—whether He says stay, move, wait, or build, our singular response must be trust. This isn't passive resignation but active reliance on the One who holds all things.

The Foundation: His Character.
  • Our trust isn't grounded in circumstances but in who He is:
  • Our Everlasting Rock—unchanging, unmovable
  • Our Fortress and Shield—our protection and defense
  • Omniscient and Omnipotent—all-knowing, all-powerful
  • Faithful in covenant—"I will never leave you nor forsake you" (Hebrews 13:5)
  • Working all things for good for those who love Him (Romans 8:28)
  • Enduring in mercy—"His love endures forever" (Psalm 136:1)
The Promise: Perfect Peace - This "perfect peace" (shalom shalom in Hebrew) isn't the absence of trouble but the presence of wholeness, completeness, and well-being that comes from:
  • A steadfast mind—fixed on Him, not circumstances
  • A trusting heart—relying on His timing and ways
  • A surrendered will—holding His hand as our strategy
Father God, because we trust You, we will hold Your hand—that's our strategy, that's our motive. We trust Your specific, progressive guidance. We will trust You always. This is the command we follow. In Jesus' Name, Amen.

Today, may we fix our thoughts on Him, consuming our imagination with His faithfulness rather than our fears. May we walk in the perfect peace promised to those whose trust is anchored not in outcomes but in the Eternal Rock Himself.

The Lord is indeed worthy of our complete Trust...

Two expressions of surrender

Two expressions of surrender. Reference  Esther 4:16 - if I perish, I perish. Esther 8:17 - because the fear of Jews seized the people  Ruth 1: 16-17 - ...your God my God.... Ruth 4:17 - A Son born to Naomi (through Boaz & Ruth) they named him Obed, the father of Jesse and David ( genealogy of Jesus) The challenges we face shouldn’t keep us from trusting Him, because God never stops working in those moments. His promises, purpose, and presence are always there for us to hold onto if we’re willing to open our hearts to Him. Esther’s life was far from easy or comfortable; she lost her parents and was cared for by her uncle Mordecai. By God’s favour, she was brought into the palace at Susa. Responding to a timely call, she joined her uncle through three days of prayer and fasting before carefully presenting her case to the king to seek his intervention. Her plea was heartfelt: “We’ve been sold, I and my people, to be destroyed—sold to be massacred, eliminated. If we had merel...

When Runners Are Called: How God Meets Us in Our Flight?

  Shabbat Shalom from Kent, London- 15Aug2025 📍 Running Isn’t Always Rebellion Scripture Reference: Acts 7 In a world that celebrates boldness and strength, running is often seen as weakness. But Scripture tells a different story. Time and again, God meets people not in their triumphs, but in their retreats. Fear, shame, rejection, and confusion have driven many to flee—but those moments became divine turning points. This blog explores ten biblical figures who ran, hid, or withdrew… and how God called them in the very places they tried to escape. This message is for the leaders, learners, seekers, and servants. Whether you’re running from something or toward something, may you discover that God doesn’t just call the brave. He calls the broken, the weary, and yes—the runners. 🏃‍♂️ The Runners Who Were Called 1. Moses He fled Egypt after killing a man, rejected by his own people (Acts 7:29). In Midian, far from the palace, God called him through a burning bush. His flight became h...
