Psalms 130:5 NLT: “I am counting on the Lord; yes, I am counting on him. I have put my hope in his word.”
Having made his plea to the Lord, the psalmist then waits patiently for God and the rescue He will bring. But the waiting is not a time of inactivity. The psalmist uses this time to actively set his hope on the promises of God as found in the Word of God, the Bible.
God is true to his word. If God promises us something, we can count on it being so. Our hope is anchored in God's promises in his Word.
Interestingly, the psalmist doesn't keep his hope in the Lord to himself. He wrote it into a prayer that the entire congregation could sing to the Lord! The whole world should know about the hope we have through faith in our God!
Blessings and safety to all today!
