Some Trust In Everything But God

It seems that believers today are trusting in everything and everybody, but God.  We trust that our jobs will always be there, we trust that our family and friends will be there in the time of need, and we trust that our finances will be right for certain things we have planned to do.  In fact, we trust in the very things that God has allowed us to have, such as our material possessions.  However, one thing is certain, God has always meant for the believer to trust in Him above all else.  In the unstable times that we live in everything you own can be lost in a matter of seconds; all you have worked for can be gone up in smoke; then what do you have when you are left with nothing?  My hope is that your ultimate trust is in God.  King David said “Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God (Psalm 20:7)”.  In David’s day if you had an abundance of chariots and horses, then you essentially had a great army and victory in battle was yours.  However, David didn’t put his trust in what he could see on the battlefield through natural eyes, he put his trust in the God who is seen only through the eyes of the Spirit.  

David is encouraging us to trust God and remember Him above all else.  It’s important that we remember the Lord, and what he has done for us; because if He brought us out of a bad situation one time, it’s important to trust Him for the next battle that will come upon us.  If we notate and remember what God has done for us in our past battles (down to the smallest of details) then trusting Him in future conflicts won’t be so hard.  But we must pay attention to what God is doing in our lives and one of the best ways to do that is to record our conflicts and victories which the Lord has brought us through, so that we will have them for future reference.  Thus, saints when it comes to trusting God and walking this word out in our daily lives here are some things we should do with the word: Read it out—Write it down—Pray it in—and Work it out, and leave the rest to God.
