Psalm 125 (MSG) Those who trust in Godare like Zion Mountain:
Nothing can move it, a rock-solid mountain
you can always depend on.
Mountains encircle Jerusalem,
and God encircles his people—
always has and always will...
Be good to your good people, God,
to those whose hearts are right!
God will round up the backsliders,
corral them with the incorrigibles.
Peace over Israel!
Mount Zion is a symbol of security.
Jerusalem is situated in a mountain range running north and south, parallel to and west of the Jordan River.
Zephaniah 3:11-12 (King James Version)
11 In that day shalt thou not be ashamed for all thy doings, wherein thou hast transgressed against me: for then I will take away out of the midst of thee them that rejoice in thy pride, and thou shalt no more be haughty because of my holy mountain.
12 I will also leave in the midst of thee an afflicted and poor people, and they shall trust in the name of the LORD.
3:12 Trust, Chasah (chah-sah); Strong's #2620: To trust; to hope; to make someone a refuge.
Receive God's forgiveness through Jesus' completed work on your behalf.
Rejoice with all you heart because god has removed His judgment from you!
Live your life in ways that honor the Lord and bring glory to His name. (NSFLB)
