A More Secure Quest
Part 3 of 4
In seeking the kingdom of YHVH, as David suggests in this psalm, we attain His grace. Wealth is a fleeting commodity. It is something that can be here today and gone tomorrow. Those of the late 1920’s found out the hard way when they went to bed one evening as millionaires, and woke up the next morning as paupers. There's another time coming in the very near future for us that will make 1929 pale in comparison.
There is only one constant in the universe—the ever-strong El Shaddai of that universe. Because of the ever-reliable qualities of our all-powerful and omnipotent Lord, we can safely trust His Word and commit every fiber of our existence to Him. It truly is a faith like Paul expressed to Timothy in 1: 12 of his second epistle, “For I know whom I have believed and am persuaded that He is able to keep what I have committed to Him until that day”.
It is because of this unmerited favor of our Lord, we are brought into all joy—a joy which remains as ever-constant as the Elohim that gave it. While there is nothing inherently wrong with wealth, or even great riches, the ever-solid foundation laid for us through Yeshua our risen Messiah and made available through His redeeming sacrifice truly is as David concluded v. 10, “sweeter also than honey and the honeycomb”.
