Psalms 37:39

Spurgeon - Verse Expositions - Charles H. Spurgeon

Read in KJV Bible Reader

Psalms 37:39. He is their strength in the time of trouble.

Dwell on that sweet short sentence. Not only does the Lord give them strength, but he himself "is their strength in the time of trouble." He is so near to his people that all the omnipotence of his Godhead is theirs. Are you in trouble just now, dear child of God? Well, you have strength enough to carry you through it all if this be true, as it is "He is their strength in the time of trouble." If God himself is your strength, do not talk about being weak; of course you are weakness itself apart from him, do not expect to be anything other than that; but then remember the psalmist’s declaration, "He is their strength in the time of trouble."
