The word trust has a deep meaning. It means to believe in a thing's reliability, truth, or ability. In our daily lives, there is always the use of trust, in every decision we take. Without trust, we cannot make decisions. For example, we first trust that a type of food is good for the body and hygienic before we decide to eat it. In every decision we make, there is the need to trust.
But man sadly has made several wrong decisions because they placed their trust in the wrong things. Well, this has been since the fall of man, as humans had lived as children without parents, which has led mankind to make decisions based on probability and assumptions and end up making wrong decisions.
Humans were designed by God to be guided as they rule the earth. But they were separated from God and chose to make decisions themselves. Many of these decisions were wrong and costly. The major reason is that man did not design the system, God did, and they need Him to guide them and understand the system He created. So, what is the way out?
Let's look at Proverbs 3:5-6, which says, "Trust in the LORD with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; ⁶ In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."
God the creator of the whole universe and a perfect system before it was corrupted, is the only one who knows the right decisions man is to take. And He wants us to trust in Him with all our hearts and rely on Him. He has proven Himself throughout the scriptures.
Every true Son and Daughter of God has free access to the Holy Spirit who leads and guides us in everything. The Lord Jesus has shown us ways in which He can always be trusted through scripture. He alone will never leave nor forsake us (ref.: Genesis 28:15, Deuteronomy 31:6-8, Joshua 1:5, Hebrews 13:5).
To be led by the Holy Spirit is to live as Sons and Daughters of God, and not as orphans. He made us and knows us more than we know ourselves. Without Him, we run as a body without a head or as a person without sight or vision. To trust Him allows us to decide accurately which is in line with His perfect plan for our lives in managing the system He designed since creation.
Most of all, we are to trust Him with all our hearts, which is a sign of complete rest in Him, not our understanding that has failed us.
He is not a man, He remains consistent in His perfection. He is the same yesterday, today and forever (ref.: Hebrews 13:8). You can always count on Him, He will never let you down. No matter what you studied, it can fail you, but Jesus can never, and will never fail you.
Trust Jesus today in all you do, and see your life go smoothly as you fulfil your destiny in Him.
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!
