TRUST IN THE LORD

August 14, 2021

We hear so many voices, and everyone has their own slant on a subject that, for many, it is hard to know who to believe. That is why I recommend that everyone incorporate these scripture verses found in Proverbs 3:5-6 into their daily routine.

Before I share my thoughts on these verses, I want to include several translations of them in this blog, and they are:

(KJV) Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths. Be not wise in thine own eyes: fear the Lord

(TLB) Trust the Lord completely; don’t ever trust yourself. In everything you do, put God first, and he will direct you and crown your efforts with success. Don’t be conceited, sure of your own wisdom. Instead, trust and reverence the Lord.

(MSG) Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God.

(TPT) Trust in the Lord completely, and do not rely on your own opinions. With all your heart rely on him to guide you, and he will lead you in every decision you make.
Become intimate with him in whatever you do, and he will lead you wherever you go.[b]
Don’t think for a moment that you know it all.

King Solomon, who was known to be the wisest man living at his time, told his son in whom he needed to place his confidence. He said to him that he should not waver and do this placement half-heartedly but do it whole-heartedly. Solomon expressed that his son should not put any stock in his ability but incorporate God into all of his affairs. Thus, with God involved in His choices and decisions, he would be successful.

Most importantly for all of us, I believe if we take the instructions of Solomon seriously, we will not start our day without seeking Divine intervention. If I am neglectful, it is an indication that I think my day will go well without His help. Furthermore, I believe the haughty spirit that wants to control our lives desires us to overlook God, but we must take authority over that spirit and humble ourselves to seek and trust God. Though many voices are speaking into our ears, causing us to question who is telling the truth, I thank God that I know and have a relationship with Him, the Truth Giver, and I am daily learning to trust and obey.

    Good directive in your summation on Trust in the Lord. There is no more of an important subject than the need to Trust in the LORD; which is strengthened thru daily intentional time spent in meditation of God’s Word, and prayer. While they are each powerful individually, they produce more in us together; TRUST!! As you stated, shows we can’t go a day without Him & need of iis divine intervention every day!
