Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice! Let your gentleness be evident to all. The Lord is near. Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus. PHILIPEANS 4:4-7
I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress, my God, in whom I trust." PSALMS 91:2
Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight. PROVERBS 3:5-6
He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God.MICAH 6:8
The old expression for being a Christian or getting saved was Trusting in Jesus. The old folks would say man has begun to trust in Jesus. Or has really blossomed since she started Trusting in Jesus. Trusting in the Lord is the most important aspect of our being a Christian. Believing He is who He says He is and accepting His will for our lives in every facet of our lives is vital. He can be trusted for instance; in the choosing of your mate, in the choosing of your profession, in the friends and place you live. He can be relied upon to make your life the very best and to elevate you to the happiest, most fulfilled person you could possibly be.
Our problem, [and I am the worst in this] is that we fight so hard to get our own way that when we get it we often destroyed so much along the way that we feel a sense of loss in the getting.
If I were to pray first before going after something, I might just get an answer I don necessarily like but if acted on it will be the best path for me as the verse says, Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.
When I am looking for provision or addition in my life and I trust in [go to] God for the answer, I can be assured that he will be ready to help, because He wants us to go to Him for everything. When the wolf is at the door again I go to God for the answer. When my heart is breaking or so full of happiness it feels like it is in danger, I again go to Him in prayer for the former; to ask for comfort and the latter for gratitude.
As it says in Micah He has showed you, O man, what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God. I need to walk humbly with my God, that is not be my own solution master but ask Him to be my all.I found a song I just love that beautifully illustrates this
