Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but we will remember the name of the Lord

The psalmist (King David) declared God is the strength of my heart and portion. He says here that his dependence is on God and nothing else.  In whom do you trust? What or whom is your fortification? To be fortified is to be protected, to be secured and safe from dangers and perils.

With increase in technology and artificial intelligence which makes work and daily life easier in our day, it has become so easy to forget God. There is a growing confidence in the ability of devices over the divine

The lead scripture reminds us that we shouldn’t be carried away with our own fortifications (our set up systems).

Some trust in Chariots (the weapons of war): these are things that we either wage war with or defend ourselves with; what is your defense? What do you wage war with? How reliable is it?

Some trust in Horses (Represents both strength and speed): What do your count on for strength and speed, what aids your swift movement in destiny? Man, machine, or God? It might be fashionable to trust in advancement and sophisticated weapons and systems, it might even be the norm to follow trends, but we would not be carried away, we will remember the name of the Lord.

The Lord is our eternal security and conveyance for the future and in the future. The king, Solomon counsels, ‘Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding’ (do not depend on human reasoning and human systems). Trust in the Lord, only He is reliable. Fortify yourself in the Lord. Build up yourself on your most holy faith

Prov 3:5-6, Jude 1:20, Ps 20:7, Ps 73:26
