Trust in God means having confidence in God, it also means puting your all in God.
Not putting your trust in God will make you a failure.
many wants to put their trust in God, but they don’t have the knowledge on how to put their trust in God fully.
“The Lord is good, a fortress on the day of trouble; And He is aware of these who trust him” Nahum 1:7
base on the scripture when you trust God, God knows.
Our success is in the foundation of we having confidence in God.
Nahum sheds lights on some truths about God.
First, he said God good, He is correct at his words, and his deeds. Every good gift comes from Him. Even if the situation is not how we plan it, we can still see his goodness smiling at us.
God did not say we won’t face challenges, but he only promise us victory when we trust in Him.
When our enemy seeks to kill us, we can run to God and get safety and peace in Him and from him.
Secondly The Prophet said God is aware of these who are trying to find refuge in him.
God loves these who run in his arms. He welcomes them as his beloved children, he forgive their sins and remember their sins no more through his atonement on the cross.
In God, we get refuge till eternity. We are secure underneath the wings of the Almighty. In God, we can trust, He is capable.
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart and do no lean on your understanding.” Proverbs 3:5
Anyone who believes and depends absolutely on God is not ashamed.
Trusting God is not that He will do your will, but that he will do his will in your life, because his understanding and ways are higher than your own.
Not to have confidence in God is to depend on one’s understanding and abilities and to also face the consequences of your actions.
despite your challenge’s, trusting in God totally is where the victory is. You proceed to pray, even if it appears that God does no longer respond to your prayers. You hold saying, like Job: “Though he slay me, yet will I trust him”
