Trust

Trust God, even when you don't understand it all. It's in the Bible, Proverbs 3:5-6, NKJV. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your paths."

Trust is believing God will do exactly what He says He will do. It's in the Bible, Romans 3:21-22, TLB. "But now God has shown us a different way to heaven—not by 'being good enough' and trying to keep His laws, but by a new way (though not new, really, for the Scriptures told about it long ago). Now God says He will accept and acquit us—declare us 'not guilty’—if we trust Jesus Christ to take away our sins. And we all can be saved in this same way, by coming to Christ, no matter who we are or what we have been like."

Perfect peace results from trusting in God. It's in the Bible, Isaiah 26:3, NIV. "You will keep in perfect peace him whose mind is steadfast, because he trust in You."

Put your trust in God, not human beings. It's in the Bible, Jeremiah 17:5-7 NKJV. “Cursed is the man who trusts in man and makes flesh his strength, whose heart departs from the LORD. For he shall be like a shrub in the desert, and shall not see when good comes, but shall inhabit the parched places in the wilderness, in a salt land which is not inhabited. Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, and whose hope is the LORD."

It is folly to put your trust in wealth and money, put your trust in God who provides for you. It's in the Bible, 1 Timothy 6:17, NKJV. "Command those who are rich in this present age not to be haughty, nor to trust in uncertain riches but in the living God, who gives us richly all things to enjoy."

In spite of all of Job's sufferings, Job still trusted God. It's in the Bible, Job 13:15, NKJV. "Though He slay me, yet will I trust Him..."

We can trust God and His word. It's in the Bible, Psalm 18:30,  NKJV. "As for God, His way is perfect; the word of the LORD is proven; He is a shield to all who trust in Him."

Trusting God's mercy will relieve us of our sorrows. It's in the Bible, Psalm 32:10, NKJV. "Many sorrows shall be to the wicked; but he who trusts in the LORD, mercy shall surround him."

First trust God and do what He calls you to do, then He will give you the desires of your heart. It's in the Bible, Psalm 37:3-5, NKJV.  "Trust in the LORD, and do good; dwell in the land, and feed on His faithfulness. Delight yourself also in the LORD, and He shall give you the desires of your heart. Commit your way to the LORD, trust also in Him, and He shall bring it to pass."

We have nothing to fear if our trust is in God. It's in the Bible, Psalm 56:3-4, NKJV. "Whenever I am afraid, I will trust in You. In God (I will praise His word), In God I have put my trust; I will not fear. What can flesh do to me?"

Trust God, who wishes to save everyone. It's in the Bible, 1 Timothy 4:10, NKJV. "For to this end we both labor and suffer reproach, because we trust in the living God, who is the Savior of all men, especially of those who believe."
