The Lord will do no wrong

“The just LORD is in the midst thereof; he will not do iniquity: every morning doth he bring his judgment to light, he faileth not; but the unjust knoweth no shame.” - Zephaniah 3v5

I find it interesting that the so often in the midst of our trials and testings we can be tempted to doubt and question God. “Can He really understand this? Does He know what is going on?” How do we ever overcome that? How do we get to the point where we don’t doubt God?

A huge part of that comes down to faith. When we doubt God we are in essence questioning His heart and His character. Often in the Old Testament, in the midst of God’s wrath, He makes a point to remind us that He is always doing the right thing. His judgement is always right. As His children live our lives He is always in our midst, and He never does what is wrong, He never fails us.

Once again it comes down to faith – do we have the faith to trust God even when we can’t see what He is doing?
