Who do you trust the most in this world? Who are you going to trust in the future?
God is where we place our trust. If you don’t trust God, you will find something or someone to put your trust in.
Anytime I trust any person or anything more than God or anytime I value any person or anything before God that’s called an idol.
3 Questions To Ensure You Trust The Right People:
1. What happens when I trust something else or someone else more than God?
There are 2 Negative Effects:
- I’m Disappointed
Your relationship with God is what brings you happiness. Having the person beside you that you love, adds to what God does.
-I’m Dominated and Controlled
Whatever is first place in your life, is your God. You better make it the one and only God.
2. Why does it seem so difficult to trust God? Why do we start trusting in all kinds of things to give our life meaning and significance? We often try to contain God to a place or space. He is bigger and won’t be controlled. Let Him be in control.
3. What are the reasons that I really ought to trust God with my life?
-Because He Is Truth! God Always Tells the Truth.
-Because He Loves Me! When we put our trust in God, He drives away our fears.
-Because He’s In Control! He is in control of the whole universe. God is working His purpose and plan in history. One day Jesus Christ is coming back to earth. Nothing is going to stop that.
-Because He Will Help Me!
