Trust Issues

 Hi everyone,

Have you ever been in a fix and you know there is nothing in that smart brain of yours that can take you out of it? Well, I’ve been in a lot of it, and I keep thinking I can get out of the mess [which truly isn’t possible], but it wasn’t until the Holy Spirit asked who I run to for help when I get into trouble, that I then understood where He was headed.

Proverbs 3:5-6 says, “Lean on, trust in, and be confident in the Lord with all your heart and mind and do not rely on your own insight or understanding. In all your ways know, recognise, and acknowledge Him, and He will direct and make straight and plain your paths.” AMP.

The major issue we have is trust issues, we don’t trust God enough. We might say “no, that’s not true, I trust God with all my heart.” What God usually ask us to do is usually strange, or sometimes, they might not be strange but they won’t be heading in the direction you felt was best according to your findings and statistical analysis, generally approved by man, written in books, taught in schools, and so on, but that’s not where He would lead you through. The question now is do we trust God very much? True we trust Him, but to what extent?

The reason why King Solomon said we should trust God by not leaning on our own understanding is that it would in many times contradict what we stand for, but why must we trust Him anyway, is it because He is God, so giving Him that respect is to obey Him? Well, that could be a reason, but God isn’t a mean person Who would lead you astray. And why is it that from the past records, He has never led anyone astray? It is because He knows what is going to happen, He knows the end from the beginning, He sees what no man can see or predict.

As I have said many times before, Man always assumes, use probability, and predict, which is never accurate until they happen by chance. In other words, Man leaves everything to chance. But there is a Person Who chance isn’t in His dictionary, nothing ever happens by accident because He knows the outcome of everything beyond the understanding of Man, that which we can never quantify with our reasoning. Who would you rather choose? The game of chance or the path of accuracy?

The truth is that either taking the route of chance or taking the path of accuracy are risks, but then again, the One with the path of accuracy is Accuracy personified, and the Truth Himself, (ref.: Numbers 23:19; John 14:6), and He can never change, because He is the same yesterday, today, and forever, (ref.: Hebrews 13:8), and in His record, excellence is an understatement. So, when He asks you to follow Him, would you still choose the way of chance or the path of over accuracy? The choice is left to you.

May the LORD bless you and keep you, make His face shine upon you. May the LORD be gracious to you and lift up His countenance upon you, and give you peace. AMEN.

                    

Why not accept Jesus today if you haven’t. Pray out loud, “Jesus, I confess that You are my Lord and Saviour. I believe in my heart that God raised You from the dead. By faith in Your Word, I receive salvation now. Thank You for saving me!” Congratulations, you’re born again, you are now brand new!
