"Those who trust in the Lord Are like Mount Zion, which cannot be moved, but abides forever. As the mountains surround Jerusalem, So the Lord surrounds His people from this time forth and forever." (Psalms 125:1-2)

The word "trust" in Hebrew means confidence, reliance, and resting in God's security. It is not casual belief but a steady leaning upon God in the face of uncertainty.

Mount Zion was not only a physical hill in Jerusalem but also a symbol of God’s dwelling and His unshakable kingdom, of which we are a part.

Mountains are enduring landmarks, and Zion was associated with God’s eternal covenant. The point is that trust in God gives stability that circumstances, enemies, or time cannot uproot.

Geographically, Jerusalem is encircled by higher mountains such as Mount of Olives. This natural fortification provided protection.

God’s protection is not partial or temporary but complete, encompassing us on every side.

God’s protection is ongoing and eternal. Unlike systems in our world or trust in people, God's surrounding care is permanent. This reflects God's covenant faithfulness—He will never abandon His people!

This psalm provides confidence amid instability. Political turmoil, personal trials, betrayals, or policy shifts in our society may shake everything else, but those who trust in Christ remain unshakable!
