“Trust in the Lord with all your heart. Never rely on what you think you know. Remember the Lord in everything you do and he will show you the right way” Proverbs 3:5-6

Our opening verse tells us to trust in the Lord in every step we take while we are still alive. Trust means confidence put in someone or something. Trust is dependent on the power inside you. Trust is seen outside as a result of fellowship, commitment to God and loving his word as well.

Citing an example, you can decide not trust idols or friends at school; love the word or world in your environment. Such a decision is a power derived from the truth about the gospel.

Psalm 25:2 says “In you, my God I trust. Save me from the shame of defeat, don’t let my enemies gloat over me”! This power of decision with confidence is in you and when given a chance will explode.

There is always a reward for trusting God. This is what Romans 10:11 says “Whoever believes in him will not be disappointed”. Hallelujah!

Here whether you poor or rich, beautiful or ugly, literate or illiterates, working or jobless, as you decide to trust the Lord from today with patience, endurance, fellowship, God can save you from shame, enemies and disappointments.

Wherever you are now, this year and beyond you just need to trust or believe in God and your life shall never be the same.

PRAYER

Most gracious Father, I continue to honour your name for your undiluted word and who you are. I am delighted because your word has encouraged me to trust in you. My life shall be established on trust in Jesus’ name….Amen.
