Sustained by God’s Strength

Bible verse of the day - Psalm 55:22

New International Version (NIV)

"Cast your cares on the Lord and he will sustain you; he will never let the righteous be shaken."

King James Version (KJV)

"Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and he shall sustain thee: he shall never suffer the righteous to be moved."

New King James Version (NKJV)

"Cast your burden on the Lord, and He shall sustain you; He shall never permit the righteous to be moved."

New Living Translation (NLT)

"Give your burdens to the Lord, and he will take care of you. He will not permit the godly to slip and fall."

English Standard Version (ESV)

"Cast your burden on the Lord, and he will sustain you; he will never permit the righteous to be moved."

The Message (MSG)

"Pile your troubles on God’s shoulders—he’ll carry your load, he’ll help you out. He’ll never let good people topple into ruin."

From Psalm 55:22, we learn several powerful truths:

1. God Invites Us to Cast Our Burdens on Him:

The verse reminds us that we don’t have to carry life’s burdens alone. God invites us to give Him our worries, fears, and struggles, knowing He cares for us deeply.

2. God’s Sustaining Power: 

When we trust God with our burdens, He promises to sustain us. This means He gives us strength and support, holding us up when we feel weak or overwhelmed.

3. God Protects the Righteous: 

The verse emphasizes that God will not let the righteous be shaken or fall. This doesn’t mean we’ll be free from troubles, but God ensures we won’t be overcome by them. We can stand firm in His strength.

4. A Call to Trust God’s Faithfulness: 

By laying our burdens on God, we practice faith and trust in His ability to care for us better than we could on our own. It’s a reminder to turn to Him daily for peace, strength, and hope.

This verse encourages us to rely on God’s unfailing love and power, finding rest and assurance in His presence even amid life’s difficulties.
