Good Luck Charms
"Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of
your heart." (Psalm 37:4).
Scripture Focus: Leviticus 26:1-13
Do you remember having a good luck charm when you were young? It may
have been a rabbit's foot or a lucky penny. We must have wanted
something to hold onto. Probably not one of us knows the whereabouts
of those items today.
Thankfully, we cling to something lasting, and His name is Jesus
Christ. While the human heart craves good fortune and places its
confidence in meaningless objects, the One Who will never be moved
holds out His hand to us.
The wisdom of Psalm 37 gives us more assurance than any four-leaf
clover. "Trust in the LORD" (vs. 3); "Delight yourself in the LORD"
(vs. 4); and "Commit your way to the LORD" (vs. 5).
While many discard old "good luck charms," some people today still
cling to them. Abandon those childish ways. Let the Word of Christ
dwell in you richly. Then not only will you know how to hate what is
evil and cling to what is good (Romans 12:9), but also you'll know
the One in Whose grip you are tightly held. Let the rabbits keep
their feet!
Insight: The devil is not opposed to faith if its object is anything
or anyone but God. But he trembles when it is.
