When I put my trust in feeble man, my world will be unsteady & unsafe.
To trust God FULLY means to dwell in His safety & place your security in HIM. I will fall & I will fail, when people become my safe place. I will fall & I will fail, when my successes become my safe place. I will fall & I will fail, when my relationships become my safe place.
To follow God, means to walk beyond the shore into the waves. If I am placing my confident trust & hope, in people I will sink. I will fall. I will drown. When God becomes my place of refuge, no attack from the enemy, no bondage that is holding me captive, no disease can destroy me, I am protected under the shadow of His wings.
When we trust in Jesus, he won’t calm the storm around us, but He will calm the storm INSIDE us.
Psalm 28:7 {{ The LORD is my strength and my shield; my heart trusted in him, and I am helped: therefore my heart greatly rejoiceth; and with my song will I praise him.
It is not out of my own strength I can fight this battle. It is not my own armor I wear. It is not my word I use as a sword to defend truth. It is not my hope that is an anchor for my soul. It is not myself whom I trust in. It is my Father. It is His strength, His armor, His word, His hope.
The Lord is creating in you a warrior spirit, while he is equipping you with His armor & He is readying your heart to trust FULLY & COMPLETELY in Him.
Psalm 91:9 {{ Because thou hast made the LORD, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation. He is the place where I dwell. In Him, my identity is found & my calling is fulfilled. In Him, my confidence is strengthened & my worries will flee.
Psalm 125:1 {{ THEY that trust in the LORD shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever. In Him, I am not moved. In Him, I am not shaken. In Him, I am { F O U N D }
