It's All About Jesus, My Hope

Watch

Psalm 146 reminds us of the unwavering faithfulness and goodness of God and all it motivates us to do. First it motivates us to praise him. We need to remind each other to praise God, and even to remind our own souls to praise him. There's days we may not feel like it, and we encourage one another with our praises. Second we're motivated to wholeheartedly trust Jesus, rather than in human beings, institutions, worldly circumstances, our own abilities. Jesus alone can save! Last we're motivated to make Jesus alone our hope. Psalm 146 lists 12 characteristics of God (which parallel descriptions of Jesus in Isaiah 61:1-3 and Luke 4:18-19; 7:22-23). These give us reasons to make Jesus our hope, trust him, and praise him!

Is Jesus just Jesus or “my Jesus” to you? To follow Jesus means we are possessive toward him, and Jesus is possessive of us. To know Jesus, then, is to know him as My King, My Light, My Shepherd, MY God.
