141. Trusting in the Lord Alone: Psalm 146

Psalm 146 is a call to wholehearted trust in God, reminding us that human strength and leadership are temporary, but the Lord reigns forever. The psalmist begins with a commitment to lifelong praise, urging us not to put our trust in earthly rulers who cannot save. Instead, true blessing comes from trusting in God, the Creator and Sustainer of all things. He is faithful, defends the oppressed, provides for the needy, and upholds those who are weary. The psalm concludes with a powerful declaration: “The Lord will reign forever.” In a world of uncertainty, this truth gives us hope and security. How can we cultivate deeper trust in God today?
