Those Who Trust in the LORD

In this episode of Arise + Abide, Curtis and Sally reflect on Psalm 125 and the assurance it offers to those who trust in the Lord. Drawing from the imagery of Mount Zion and the mountains encircling Jerusalem, they explore how God surrounds His people with unshakable protection—both now and forever.

As they meditate on the psalmist's words, the hosts share personal reflections on the beauty and symbolism of mountain landscapes and how that physical imagery evokes God's spiritual guardianship. Curtis underscores the importance of trusting God not just as a distant protector, but as the One who dwells within us, transforming our hearts from the inside out. Sally ties in prophetic visions from Zechariah and Jeremiah to illustrate how God’s presence creates a protective “wall of fire” and a fruitful, enduring life for those rooted in Him.

The conversation also considers the human tendency to sort people into “good” or “bad,” contrasted with God’s gracious invitation for all to turn from their ways and be made righteous through Him. With themes of trust, transformation, and spiritual alignment, this episode invites listeners to surrender more deeply and live with confidence in the faithful love of God.
