Faith And Trust
Hebrews 11:6, And without faith it is impossible to please God, for whoever would approach Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who seek Him.
Proverbs 3:5-6, Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He will make your path straight.
Faith is defined as having complete confidence in someone, or something.
Trust is defined as believing in the reliability, truth and ability of someone or something.
Sometimes people question whether they have faith. Many of them ask God to let them know. They don't seem to realize that it takes a certain amount of Faith to pray in the first place. They basically answer their own question.
Many people struggle to muster up enough Faith to believe that they will get what they ask of God. Just that quick satan steps in and tries to bring doubt. Thoughts like, did I pray enough? Did I say the right things? Did God hear me? Will He answer me?
Put your mind at ease. God sees the heart, and answers sincere prayer. The prayer of a Believer, when asked in Jesus name, is carried by the Holy Spirit to God in Heaven. The Holy Spirit first takes those words from your heart and fashions an acceptable prayer to God.
Okay, we did the faith part, now we must do the trust part. We trust that God our Father hears our prayer. The stumbling block for many people is being doubtful of whether God will do it for them.
Just recently I heard a preacher explain a very clear picture of how prayer works. God in Heaven knows your needs and wants. He prepares those needs and wants in the spiritual world. They will wait there until you release them to the natural world by prayer. God is your Heavenly Father, and He wants us to trust Him, the way a child trusts a parent.
When you understand how faith and trust work together, you will see amazing things. Remember this, if you limit your expectations, you are limiting God. Nothing is impossible for God. No matter how Impossible on Earth, or how impossible it seems in your mind. always remember, God is greater than anything you can throw in front of him. God loves His children and, Is always ready and eager to bless them. God bless you and your family. Praise The Lord!
Remember Jesus loves you.
Prayer of Salvation.
Lord Jesus, please forgive all of my sins, and come into my heart as my personal savior. I want to serve Only You.
Praise The Lord!
Amen
