[TREM Devotional 23 October 2020] Topic: Put Your Trust In God

Posted by: Henry || Categories: Devotional

“Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths”. Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV)

This is the hour to trust God and to trust Him absolutely. Whatever God says, He will do. He “is not a man that He should lie, nor a son of man that He should repent.”. (Numbers 23:19 NKJV). What we are seeing today in the global event is a deliberate and strategic intention orchestrated from the pit of hell to make you doubt God. You have followed this God all these years. Is it now that you will doubt this living God? Don’t you understand that when it is darkest, that is when God is about to show himself in your life?

In the book of Genesis 22:1-8, God gave Abraham an instruction. Abraham trusted God and when he got to the top of the mountain, the lamb for the sacrifice was already there. Beloved, what you are looking for is already supplied but the challenge is that you have refused to trust God. There are blessings and provisions that will only be seen on the mountain of obedience.

Your commitment to Kingdom agenda is a reflection of your trust. Without trust, there shall be no commitment. Where is the fire you used to have in you? Now you drag yourself to serve God! You drag yourself to read the bible and you even drag yourself to be in church. That is why some have joined the band-wagon of people who say: ‘We will no more give our money to church’. What a shame! What is wrong with believers? Would you say that this God has not been good to you?

The God you are trying to play a smart one on is the One that has kept you alive. He wakes you up every morning and has not allowed the enemy to wipe you out. Think of where you are coming from or just take a trip to the hospital and you will see those who wish they are you.
