Psalms 21:7 NLT For the king trusts in the Lord. The unfailing love of the Most High will keep him from stumbling.
We are royalty (Revelation 5:10). As royalty, we are to trust in the Lord. How do we completely trust in the Lord? By trusting in His unfailing love.
When we trust in the unfailing love of God, that minimizes the marks we miss. We’ll understand that the parameters He set up for us are based on His love.
He didn’t tell us not to be drunk with wine in Ephesians 5:18 because He wanted to ruin our “fun.” His love placed those limits in our lives because He doesn’t want us to kill ourselves, say something that will ruin a relationship, or do something we’ll regret. The same goes for fornication in 1 Corinthians 6:18. He didn’t tell us not to fornicate because He wanted to control us. He knows, and scientists have proven, the physical, emotional, and psychological issues sex before marriage can cause, and He wants to save us from having to deal with these issues.
It’s no different than the parameters we set for our children. We don’t tell them not to touch the pretty flames on the stove because we want to flex our parental muscles. No, we have that rule because we love our children and don’t want to see them hurt. God is our Heavenly Father, and we are His children. Every rule He set up in the New Covenant (in context) benefits us.
When we truly trust in His love, we trust the structure He set up for us. Our trust in His love keeps us from damaging our ourselves, our lives, and the lives of those around us.
