It Is Well With Me

In Psalm 32, King David instructs the children of God that while sorrows will
come to the wicked, what envelops the people of God is His unfailing love.

It Is Well With Me

"Many sorrows come to the wicked,
but unfailing love surrounds those who trust the LORD.
So rejoice in the LORD and be glad, all you who obey him!
Shout for joy, all you whose hearts are pure!"

(Psalm 32:10-11)

Trust God. Obey God. Have you noticed that this is the key, the secret sauce to effectively living the Christian life? It is easier to trust God and obey Him when things are going well, but in times of difficulty it is especially necessary to trust God and not lean on our own understanding. It is also imperative that we obey God, even when we do not feel like it.

In Psalm 32, King David instructs the children of God that while sorrows will come to the wicked, what envelops the people of God is His unfailing love. Since this is true, we should rejoice, be glad, and shout for joy. When a hurting and watching world sees you praising the Lord in the midst of your storm, it causes them to ask how you can do that. To sing for joy while all others are crying in sorrow leads the world to ask what you possess that they do not.

A couple of weeks ago, our worship team at Great Hills Baptist Church sang the song, "It Is Well." I invite you to read the lyrics and listen as Lori Fair sings this song of praise.

Before you do, let me say again how much I appreciate you and your prayers and support for our ministry. My wife, Ashley, and I started DFEA in 2004 and rejoice in how God continues to bless our ministry. Over 10,000 people receive our free daily devotions and weekly podcast. We are grateful to God and just wanted to say again thanks for all your love, prayers, and support. We simply could not do it without you!

Here you go: enjoy this wonderful song of praise to our great God!

Grander earth has quaked before
Moved by the sound of His voice
Seas that are shaken and stirred
Can be calmed and broken for my regard

Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
Through it all, through it all
It is well

Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
It is well with me

Far be it from me to not believe
Even when my eyes can't see
And this mountain that's in front of me
Will be thrown into the midst of the sea

Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
Through it all, through it all
It is well

So let go my soul and trust in Him
The waves and wind still know His name

It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul
It is well with my soul

It is well, it is well with my soul

Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You Lord
Through it all, through it all
It is well with me.
