Trusting in God: Part #1:
Scripture Reference: Proverbs 3: 1-8
’My son, forget not My law, but let thine heart keep My commandments, for length of
days and long life, and peace shall they add to thee. Let not mercy and truth
forsake thee, Bind them upon thy neck, write them upon the table of thine heart. So
shall thou find favor and good understanding in the
Lord. 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 and depart from evil. It shall be
health to thy navel and marrow to thy bones."

Each One of Us Place Our TRUST ---Our Confidence
-- Our Hope --- Our Assurance In Someone or
Something.
There is Something We Feel Secure and Safe In.
Perhaps It May Be Your Job --- Your Spouse ---
Your Family --- Your Education --- Your Church.
However,
Are you SECURE ENOUGH that it will HOLD YOU
WHEN THE HOWLING WINDS OF ADVERSITY ARE
COMING AT YOU FULL FORCE? WHEN THE GROUND
YOU HAVE STOOD UPON BEGINS TO TREMBLE AND
QUIVER AND SHAKE UNDERNEATH YOUR FEET --
WILL YOU STAY ANCHORED?" Things May Be Fairing
Pretty Good For You At This Moment But I Assure
You There Will Come a Time and it May Not Be Very
Long, When The Storms of Life Will Come Blowing In
Against You With Full Force ---- WHAT WILL CARRY
YOU THROUGH THEN? It’s Hard to WAIT Until the
STORMS COME and Then Go Out and Try to Find
Something to Anchor Upon or a SECURITY You Can
TRUST in. The 3 Hebrew Children were anchored
before they went into the fiery furnace. The 4th
man in the raging fire was no stranger to them. They
were TRUSTING in Him before they were cast into the flames.
<>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <>< <><
WHAT EXACTLY DO YOU TRUST IN? UPON?
HOW SECURE IS IT?
The Word of God forcasts some TROUBLESOME TIMES between now and the return of
Jesus for His Bride. Are you trusting wholeheartedly in Jesus -- The Solid Rock?
In Times Like These You Need a Saviour
In Times Like These You Need an Anchor
Be Very Sure, Be Very Sure
Your Anchor Holds and Grips the Solid Rock
This Rock is Jesus, Yes He’s the One
This Rock is Jesus, The Only One
Be Very Sure, BeVery Sure
Your Anchor Holds and Grips the Solid Rock
-----------------------------------------------------
IN THE 19TH CENTURY --- THERE WAS A VERY FAMOUS ACROBAT KNOWN FOR HIS
TIGHTROPE SKILLS. 160 FEET ABOVE THE NIAGARA FALLS --- ON A ROPE --- A
ROYAL PARTY FROM BRITAIN OBSERVED THE ACROBAT AS HE WENT ACROSS THE
TIGHTROPE ON STILTS. THEN THEY WATCHED HIM AS HE WENT ACROSS
BLINDFOLDED. AFTER THAT, HE WENT ACROSS AND STOPPED HALF WAY AND
COOKED AN OMELET. NEXT, HE WHEELED A WHEELBARROW FROM ONE SIDE TO THE
OTHER AND THEN HE RETURNED WITH A SACK OF POTATOES IN THE
WHEELBARROW.
THEN THE ACROBAT APPROACHED THE ROYAL PARTY AND HE ASKED THE DUKE OF
NEWCASTLE, "DO YOU BELIEVE I COULD TAKE A MAN ACROSS THIS TIGHTROPE IN
THIS WHEELBARROW?"
"YES, I DO." ANSWERED THE DUKE. "WELL, HOP IN." REPLIED THE ACROBAT.
HOWEVER THE DUKE DECLINED THE INVITATION. YOU SEE HE BELIEVED THE
ACROBAT "COULD" BUT HE WASN’T ABLE TO "TRUST" HIM WITH HIS OWN LIFE.
AND THAT IS THE WAY IT IS WITH SO MANY PEOPLE TODAY, EVEN SO MANY
PROFESSING CHRISTIANS,
