1. Surely the righteous will never be shaken. This is a theme that Ezra hits on again and again. When you serve and follow the Lord no matter what happens you will not be shaken. You are guided by faith, not fear. You know all things work together for good. You are like Job even God slays you. You still trust Him. You trust the Lord and lean not to your understanding, you acknowledge Him and He directs your path.
a.
This is such a great promise. You have an anchor, rock, and refuge. You are hidden in the palm of His hand. You know the fourth man in the fire. You are like Daniel in the lion’s den. You are like David facing Goliath. You know that giant is going down. Every mountain becomes a plain like Zech
4:6. Everyone around you is losing their
head but you are connected to the head of the church. Your hope is built on nothing less than
Jesus' blood and righteousness.
b.
You know all the promises are yes and amen, All things will be added when you seek the
Lord and His righteousness. The devil
has to flee because you have submitted to Christ. That greater who is you is greater than He
that is in the world. You know Jesus
came to destroy the works of the devil.
I love what the 3 Hebrew boys said to Nebuchadnezzar. We will not bow or bend. We may burn but we will not bow to your
image. Our confidence is in God so we
will not be shaken.
