Confiar no Senhor
Confiar no Senhor é a base de toda vida espiritual. A confiança em Deus nos livra do medo, nos dá paz e nos posiciona para receber as promessas divinas.
Confiar de todo coração
Confia no Senhor de todo o coração. Não te apoies em teu próprio entendimento — em todos os caminhos o reconheça.
Have confidence in the Lord with all thy heart, and lean not upon thy own prudence. In all thy ways think on him, and he will direct thy steps.
A psalm of a canticle on the sabbath day.
It is good to give praise to the Lord: and to sing to thy name, O most High.
To shew forth thy mercy in the morning, and thy truth in the night:
Upon an instrument of ten strings, upon the psaltery: with a canticle upon the harp.
When the lord brought back the captivity of Sion, we became like men comforted.
Then was our mouth filled with gladness; and our tongue with joy. Then shall they say among the Gentiles: The Lord hath done great things for them.
Raising up the needy from the earth, and lifting up the poor out of the dunghill:
For thy arrows are fastened in me: and thy hand hath been strong upon me.
There is no health in my flesh, because of thy wrath: there is no peace for my bones, because of my sins.
For my iniquities are gone over my head: and as a heavy burden are become heavy upon me.
My sores are putrified and corrupted, because of my foolishness.
And the Lord is become a refuge for the poor: a helper in due time in tribulation.
Segurança em Deus
Bem-aventurado o homem que confia no Senhor. Ele é como árvore plantada junto às águas — não temerá quando vier o calor.
Blessed be the man that trusteth in the Lord, and the Lord shall be his confidence. And he shall be as a tree that is planted by the waters, that spreadeth out its roots towards moisture: and it shall not fear when the heat cometh. And the leaf thereof shall be green, and in the time of drought it shall not be solicitous, neither shall it cease at any time to bring forth fruit.
You have hoped in the Lord for evermore, in the Lord God mighty for ever.
Behold, God is my saviour, I will deal confidently, and will not fear: O because the Lord is my strength, and my praise, and he is become my salvation.
Truth is sprung out of the earth: and justice hath looked down from heaven.
For thou shalt give him to be a blessing for ever and ever: thou shalt make him joyful in gladness with thy countenance.
For the king hopeth in the Lord: and through the mercy of the most High he shall not be moved.
I will keep thy justifications: O! do not thou utterly forsake me.
BETH. By what doth a young man correct his way? by observing thy words.
Não confiar no homem
Não temas — em ti confiarei. Melhor é confiar no Senhor do que confiar no homem ou nos príncipes.
I will give praise to thee, O Lord, among the people: I will sing a psalm to thee among the nations.
For thy mercy is magnified even to the heavens: and thy truth unto the clouds.
They have not called upon the Lord: there have they trembled for fear, where there was no fear.
The Lord help him on his bed of sorrow: thou hast turned all his couch in his sickness.
Let not your heart be troubled. You believe in God, believe also in me.
