Like a Tree Planted By The Rivers...

Hi everyone,

Some times we talk about trust in the Lord and how important it is to Sons of God without really talking about the challenges we face, the anxieties life brings and why trusting in the Lord could be more difficult than we thought. But the truth is that even with all the challenges we face, God knows about them all and has made provision in solving all the challenges we face, which removes all our anxieties from our lives. The question now is, are you ready to trust Him?

Jeremiah 17:7-8 says, “[Most] blessed is the man who believes in, trusts in, and relies on the Lord, and hope and confidence the Lord is. ₈ For he shall be like a tree planted by the waters that spreads out its roots by the river; and it shall not see and fear when heat comes; but its leaf shall be green. It shall not be anxious and full of care in the year of drought, nor shall it cease yielding fruit.” If it were possible for God to present His resume, which He has if you think about it when you look into the scriptures, you would see why He is the only One you can put your complete trust in. Sincerely, you don’t put your trust in anyone if they haven’t proven themselves, and God has proven Himself worthy of trust beyond our wildest dreams.

When you face issues of life which causes anxiety, quickly present it to God. Ask Him to help you in your toughest battle and in any battle you face. The reason why it is important to do this is that God handles the troubles as though they were His troubles. And remember there is nothing too hard for Jesus.

As you always place your trust in Jesus, you’ll find out how your life is like a tree planted by the waters that spread out its roots by the river, like a tree that has no fear of heat or drought, a tree that never ceases yielding fruits, and its leaves are always green. This is how your life would eventually become as you just close your eyes to your ways and trust Jesus because Jesus has taken your life as His, and tackles every challenge you face, and remember there is nothing too hard for Him, for He Himself has told us that even when we face tribulations, we should not fear because He has overcome the world.

Yes, our challenges may be serious, but wouldn't you rather trust someone who knows the end from the beginning, than a trust based on assumption? 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!
