No Doubt, No Fear

Don't Give up and Trust the Lord.

Those who trust in the Lord are as secure as Mount Zion; they will not be defeated but will endure forever. As the mountains surround and protect Jerusalem, so the Lord surrounds and protects his people, both now and forever. Psalm 125:1-2

What does it mean to trust in the Lord? It is simply to rely completely to His will knowing (having no doubts) that His plan for "your" life is a good one regardless of what you are going through at this moment; therefore, no matter what circumstances you're facing, remain calm because there is no worry, no doubt and no fear in trust. When we really trust God, assurance/confidence and peace replace fear. There is no wondering and no complaining in trust, so when you are going through the ups and down of living, you have to pray and remain calm knowing undoubtedly that help is the way. A man of God once told me that trust is the little voice that whispers to your soul that it going to work out fine regardless of what it looks like, regardless what the doctors are saying, regardless what your banker is saying and regardless of the trend analysis or the statistics prove, you need to let that little voice speak louder than and you have to learn to recognize it.

I often wonder why is it so difficult for Christians to trust the Lord when trusting the wrong people comes so naturally. Why can't they trust the maker? Could it be because they feel unworthy of such love? God doesn't love you because you are perfect. He loved you when you were lost, hell bound. That is why He sent His son Jesus Christ to carry your sicknesses, fear and lack to the cross and die for your transgressions in order for you to inherit eternal life. God loves you despite who you are. It does not matter what you have done, where you are right now. He still loves "you". He cares about your actual situation. He wants to bring the help you need, if you'd just trust Him and stop worrying. Can you do that? Will you do that?

Let us pray:
Loving father who's always watching over me, I thank you for your unconditional love and your compassion. I thank you for loving me when I don't even understand how to love myself. My heart is finally receptive and I accept your love. I thank you for your promise of never leaving me alone. I love you father God and I surrender my being, my destiny to your command. Feel free to invade my privacy at your convenience and I will never worry as long as you are still my loving Father and I your precious child. Help me know you better each day. I repent for ever doubting your love in the past. Help me be an instrument of your love so I will not cause pain to others. In Jesus mighty name, approve my humble prayer. Amen.

Praise the Lord!
