PSALM 1:1-3
Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked or stand in the way that sinners take or sit in the company of mockers, but whose delight is in the law of the L ord, and who meditates on his law day and night. That person is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither— whatever they do prospers.

LAMENTATIONS 3:22-23 (ESV)
The steadfast love of the L ord never ceases; his mercies never come to an end; they are new every morning; great is your faithfulness.
SERMON OUTLINE
GOD IS FAITHFUL
Psalm 86
“Trust without trustworthiness is just gullibility.” – Robert Putnam
Why we struggle to trust:
1. We won’t admit our need. (v. 1-7)
1 Hear me, Lord, and answer me, for I am poor and needy…. 3 have mercy on me, Lord, for I call to you all day long…. 6 Hear my prayer, Lord; listen to my cry for mercy. 7 When I am in distress, I call to you…
Trust doesn’t grow by pretending to be strong but knowing where to go when you’re weak.
2. We’re afraid to commit. (v. 8-11)
8 Among the gods there is none like you, Lord; no deeds can compare with yours.
9 All the nations you have made will come and worship before you, Lord… you alone are God.
11 Teach me your way, Lord, that I may rely on your faithfulness; give me an undivided heart, that I may fear your name. 12 I will praise you, Lord my God, with all my heart;
Trust doesn’t grow by keeping your options open but by giving God your whole heart.
3. We’ve forgotten who God is. (v. 13-17)
They have no regard for you. 15 But you, Lord, are a compassionate and gracious God, slow to anger, abounding in love and faithfulness.
13 For great is your love toward me; you have delivered me from the depths, from the realm of the dead.
Trust doesn’t grow through ideal circumstances but by remembering God’s character.
Daily Dwell: February 16-22
“Teach me your way, L ord , that I may rely on your faithfulness; give me an undivided heart….” - Psalm 86:11
