Trust God And Discover His Peace Series

Trust God and discover His peace

Do you commit everything you do to God?

God’s timing is not our timing, if you trust Him, He will help you. “Commit everything you do to the LORD. Trust Him, and He will help you. Be still in the presence of the LORD, and wait patiently for Him to act.” (Psalm 37:5,7).

Job was a man who experienced trouble, trial and temptation, and yet he boldly said, “God might kill me, but I have no other hope. I am going to argue my case with Him.” (Job 13:15). Even though Job had experienced loss (his children, his wealth, and his health) he did not turn away from God or abandon his faith. Job was steadfast and held on to his trust in God.

Unlike Job, we have The Bible, in which God reveals His nature and promises. God’s Word tells us that our Heavenly Father is always good, always just, always faithful, and always trustworthy. When we focus on honouring and following God, we find a consistent peace that carries us through everything.

Life is challenging, we can easily get distracted and allow circumstances to dictate our emotions. But if we operate that way, then when life is good, we are happy; when times are tough, we are frustrated; and when difficulties pour in, we are miserable. Yet, unwavering commitment to our Lord is a cornerstone of our faith. When we are firm on that foundation, we can focus on God.

To hold on to our Lord through any difficulty or temptation, commit to trust and follow Him. Claim His promises: our unchanging Lord and Saviour is committed to caring for you in all circumstances and will never leave or forsake you: For God has said, “I will never fail you. I will never abandon you.” (Hebrews 13:5) Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. (Hebrews 13:8). Give all your worries and cares to God, for He cares about you. (1 Peter 5:7).
