Because they trust in God

Ps. {37:37} Mark the perfect [man,] and behold the upright: for the end of
[that] man [is] peace.
{37:38} But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of
the wicked shall be cut off.
{37:39} But the salvation of the righteous [is] of the LORD: [he is]
their strength in the time of trouble.
{37:40} And the LORD shall help them and deliver them: he shall deliver
them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.


The perfect man.
The upright man.


Peace.


Sinners destroyed.
Wicked cut off.


Salvation of the righteous of the Lord-
The Lord is their strength in the time of trouble.


The LORD shall help them
Deliver them


Delivered from the wicked.


Saved from the wicked.


Because they trust in God.


*

The Lord is their strength- not The Lord gives them strength. The LORD IS their strength. Having trust in God is the key. Without that trust nothing else matters.


Heb. {11:6} But
without faith [it is] impossible to please [him:] for he that
cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a
rewarder of them that diligently seek him.


We shall be delivered, we shall be saved. The wicked may kill the flesh and blood in us but our Spirit - our breath of life returns to God. We are delivered. The Lords is our strength. The time of trouble is on its way and the only way to survive is by trusting in the Lord and His righteousness.


May God help us find our strength in Him, our trust in Him. May we diligently seek Christ, believing in Him now and forever.


By His mercy and grace.


Amen.
