Unwavering Trust In God - 10-Day Devotional

Dia 2 de 10

It Starts with Trust

Trust in God takes in more than just our eternal salvation. Godly trust starts with the new birth experience when we trust Him as our Savior. If we do not learn to trust God in every area of life, we will eventually become subconsciously disappointed in God and when that happens, the Rock becomes a Rock of stumbling. In other words, the Word becomes a stumbling block. 

Having long been determined to guard myself from stumbling in my walk with God, I was ready to hear everything that He had to show me about disappointment. I found this truth about disappointment reiterated over and over: those who trust the Lord shall not be disappointed — shall not stumble. This truth is paraphrased throughout the Old and New Testament, and in several places, it was a direct quote: those who trust in the Lord will not be disappointed. Very few promises are repeated this many times. 

Trust and faith are opposite. Just as fear and faith cannot operate at the same time, trust and disappointment cannot operate at the same time. Those who trust (present tense) shall not be disappointed (future tense). This is a promise with a condition. If we trust and continue to trust (now), every single time we won’t be disappointed (future). 

It does not say that opportunities won’t present themselves. Temptations to doubt the Lord will come. When those opportunities come, the ball is then in your court. The decision is yours, and it becomes your choice to either:

1) Fall for the opportunity to be disappointed or

2) Continue to trust God no matter what things look like at the moment, trusting that the time will come when you are truly not disappointed. 

I have found it to be absolute truth. But, trusting is the prerequisite before we see the outcome. 

Pray Out Loud:

Lord, I ask for Your help so that I can develop a new level of trust in every area of my life. I want to trust You now, for a future without disappointment. Thank You for this promise from Your Word. In Jesus’ name. Amen
