Have you heard the phrase, “It’s as sure as the world”? In fact, nothing is more unsure than the world (read vv.25,26). The “sure” world will perish. Jesus said, “Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away” (Matt.24:35): What is the surest things in your life? On what you are building your life? You‘d better be building it on the Lord; He is the only One who is sure.

Jesus always is the same (v.27; Heb.13:8). God has made the universe, and everything around us looks so certain. We can send people from the Earth to the moon. God’s universe is precisely crafted, but He says that all of this will perish.

What should you do, knowing that you live in a temporary world? Trust God, who is sure. Pray to Him. Trust His Word and praise Him. Prayer and praise go together (v.18).

Many people foolishly build their entire lives on the cracked foundations of this world and will one day perish with it. But God is changeless and eternal. He wants you to build your life on Him. When you pray, praise Him for His creation and for His work in your life.
