WHO DO YOU TRUST? Trust: The trust a Christian has in God is an example of his or her faith; the greater the trust the greater the degree of faith. My intention is for you to look up and read scriptures; this will get you into the Bible. God cannot be trusted in the flesh. We are to trust the Lord in the spirit for HE is a Spirit. Trust wipes out all fear. While you are in prison the Lord wants you to trust HIM. Especially during the holidays the enemy likes to whisper you are all alone, locked up don’t but that lie, TRUST HIM HE LOVES YOU. Read: 1 Samuel 13:11 One of the most difficult times to trust GOD is when you feel your resources slipping away. In the book of Samuel, Saul felt that time was running out, his impatience caused him to act against God’s will. When we are faced with a difficult decision we need to make sure that impatience does not drive us to do what is not in agreement with God’s word. When you know what God wants of you, don’t go against HIS plan regardless of the consequences. God often uses delay to test our obedience and patience. Remember delay is not denial. TRUST HIM. Read: Job 1:1 We must experience life like Job, one day at a time. Will we trust GOD no matter what happens {Job did}. Job’s story does not end in despair- he trusted God all the way and God blessed him- Read: Job 42:12 thru 17. Read: Psalm 9:10 God will never forsake those who trust in HIM. God’s promise does not mean that if we trust in HIM we will escape loss or suffering; it means that GOD himself will never leave us no matter what we face. Read: Psalm 125: 1 Have you ever known people who were drawn to every new fad or idea? Such people are inconsistent and therefore unreliable. The secret to consistency is to Trust in God, because HE never changes. HE is completely reliable and will keep us steady. By: Rev. Gary and Gloria Johnson Date Dec. 1, 2007 |
