Totally Trusting God is necessary for you and those He has called you to influence! You must trust in Him with all your heart and with every fiber of your being. (Proverbs 3:5)
When you totally surrender everything that’s dear, precious, and meaningful to you and leave it all behind and go to a place you haven’t been to obey Him, you will soon know and understand how valuable and precious it is trusting God!
When you step out on His Word “go” or “do”, the trust and faith process starts. That’s walking on water like Peter. Jesus said “come” and Peter just stepped out on the Word (Matthew 14:28-31) and Obedience to the voice of God! All around you may be a raging sea of things, issues, pain, disappointment, and chaos, but we must stay focused and keep our eyes on Jesus Only! That’s trusting God!
Is it all always easy? No, but is it possible? Emphatically YES! Through God Only, not by your strength or the strength of man. All things are possible through Christ. (Matthew 19:26) The Lord is always calling us to live outside our comfort zones and live in a place of total dependency and surrender to Him.
All I know is, Emanuel, God is with us and He got us! This journey with Him is precious, priceless and for our good. We must have a true/ real relationship and intimacy with God. So, whatever God says to do, do it. That’s trusting God!
As Paul said in Philippians 3:8, I count everything as loss compared to the surpassing excellence of knowing Christ and having a closer and deeper relationship with Him! It’s a day by day, step by step, process. But as you step out in faith He is right there with you! As the ten lepers went (stepped out on the Word of God) they were healed. (Luke 17:11-19)
God will finish the work He has begun in us. Step out on His Word and Trust Him. You may not understand all He’s asking you to do, but we know the One Who does, JESUS! HE’S THE ALL KNOWING and ALL SUFFICIENT GOD!! TRUST HIM AND HIM ONLY and continue to walk by Faith and not by sight and let the Love of God rule in your hearts!
