In God Alone

November 12, 2023 • Grayson Gilbert • Psalm 62

We are constantly inundated with a message that begs us to place our hope and trust in things that are doomed to fail us. Despite the temptation to trust in mankind, this broken and fallen world, or the promises of this world, the message of the psalmist is crystal clear: God alone is worthy of our trust. In this psalm, David provides three key reasons why we are called to place our faith in God alone. First, God is true, though all men are liars. Second, God is safe, though times are not. Finally, God is sure, though all else is transient. Yet all alike culminate in the truth that God is who He claims to be, and therefore, we can trust Him.

All Things From His Hand

January 7, 2024 • Grayson Gilbert • Psalm 60

One of the most difficult concepts for many Christians to embrace is the sovereignty of God. When one considers the ramifications of this doctrine, many grow cold, lose heart, or even become antagonistic. However, the way Scripture portrays God's sovereignty is that it is the occasion for joy and hope. In this psalm, we see this reality on full display, as Israel has just suffered a humiliating defeat in battle. Rather than shy away from it, the psalmist even says that it was God who crushed them in their affliction! Yet he does not remain here. He sees that though the hand of the Lord has crushed them, it will be this same hand that lifts them up, and thus, he hopes in God all the more.
