Those who trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion

Psalm 125:1 "Those wo trust in the Lord are like Mount Zion, which sits unmoved forever." Real trust goes a lot deeper than being able to say "Yeah, sure I believe in God." James said "You believe there is one God. Good! But the demons believe that to, and they tremble with fear" (James 2:19). Real trust means letting go of your life and your heart and giving God control of them.. It means obeying him. James used Abraham as an example: "So you see that Abraham's faith and the things he did worked together. His faith was made perfect by what he did" (James 2:22) People who trust God in this way are like Mount Zion. They're immovable, unshakable. The way a mountain stands up against the forces of nature, they are able, by God's Spirit, to stand against all the stuff that life throws them. But Mount Zion isn't just any mountain. This is the spot in Jerusalem God chose for his Temple, the place where he would live among his people. Now that you've put your trust on him, he makes his home in you...
