Are You Really Trusting God?

Are You Really Trusting God?

by Joyce Meyer - posted May 05, 2013

My beloved brethren, be steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord. —1 Corinthians 15:58 NKJV
The ability to be steadfast indicates trust in the Lord. Think about it: if I were to say, “I am trusting God,” but then I stay anxious and upset, then I am not really trusting God. If I were to say, “I’m trusting God,” but I sink into depression and despair, then I am not really trusting God. If I say I trust God and worry or lose my joy, then I am not really trusting God.
When we truly trust God, we are able to enter into His rest and allow our hearts to settle into a place of unshakable confidence in Him. The enemy will not completely go away, but he will become more of a nuisance than a major problem to us.
As long as we are on Earth, doing our best to love and serve God, the enemy will be on the prowl around us. Part of God’s design for our spiritual growth includes developing spiritual muscles as we learn to resist the enemy.
The apostle Paul understood this well, so he did not pray that people would never have trouble; he prayed that they would have perseverance, that they would be steadfast and immovable, really trusting the Lord. God wants you to enter His rest and He will work on your behalf.
God’s word for you today: Really trust the Lord.

"Trust in the Lord with all thy heart and lean not unto thy own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He Shall direct thy paths" Proverbs 3:5-6

Thanks Horizon and Petra!

Pray for me and my wife and son and daughter please.
We need guidance in prayer from God's family for the next 40 days please.
We need a supernatural financial breakthrough as we need to move and find a new home.
