The first section of Psalms has been called the Genesis Psalms.

They help us to realize that every good thing begins with God.

The Psalms provide a roadmap for the journey ahead.

In them, we learn to bring every emotion and experience of life into the presence of God.

Join Scott Pauley now as we study God's Word together.

We throw our hands up in the air and we say, I don't know what to do.

And I think sometimes when we get to that

point in life, all of heaven applauds. And God says, good. I've been waiting on you to get there

all along. You see, we have to come to the end of ourselves to realize that we just need the Lord.

There's a question posed in Psalm 11. And our last study we looked at it is this simple question,

if the foundations be destroyed, what can the righteous do?

We came to the conclusion that if you're building on the right foundation, your foundation is never destroyed.

But storms are going to come, attacks are going to come, difficulties are going to come, so what can the righteous do?

We learned that the question

that's posed in Psalm 11 begins to be answered there and then carries right on end to the next

Psalm. The theme carries right on into Psalm 12. So let's pick up where we left off. What can the righteous do?

Well, number one, we learn we can trust. That's right. We begin by faith. Anything that does not begin by faith will end

in failure. So Psalm 11 opened with these words in the Lord, put I my trust. I must trust that God

has me where I'm supposed to be and I must trust that God is always where he's supposed to be.

The great danger, I repeat to you, the great danger in life and in the battle is not the enemy

you see.

It is the temptation to live your life by sight instead of by faith.
