Jeremiah 17:5 – 8: Blessed is the one who trusts in the lord,
Chose confidence is in Him.
When you have God on your side there is no reason to think
That he would not bless and benefit you
When you trust in god you can bear fruit in any circumstance. Our faith is seen by how we trust God when things are down
When you trust in yourself you don’t see what god is doing.
We don’t lose trust in god instantaneously but we shift our
Trust gradually when we get hurt or disappointed
Deuteronomy 11:10-15
Mark 6:30-44
The disciples got to see a miracle of God when it was
Humanly impossible to feed all the crowd
God wants more for our lives and he is willing to flip the
Script to transform our lives
God is faithful
Jesus was in personal anguish, as he had just lost his cousin –
John the Baptist, when he gave thanks and fed the five thousand.
When we face challenges instead losing trust or complaining we should acknowledge the difficult circumstances but then proceed to thank God for what He is doing in our lives
Deuteronomy 11:16
God is not a celestial vending machine in the sky
How can we be like Paul and Silas or like Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego.
Things can look very bad on paper but that is when god flips
The script and does something amazing
Devout yourself to God no matter the circumstances.
We need a major return to god, our life has to overflow.
With faith we should spend more time with god and god will get things done for us. We should not spend more time doing things on our own.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-17: Rejoice always, pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus.
