LET US TRUST HIM MORE

Daily Thought

Your Word for 02 December 2024

Romans 8:31
‘If God is for us, who can ever be against us?’

What a joy to know that we can continually trust God. This trust relationship should be a growing aspect of our lives. Each day, each year, we should live in such a way that this aspect grows to a greater and greater degree. Some people may think we are foolish, but we know it is the very foundation of our faith and confidence. I have discovered in my own life how He has proved Himself to me over and over again. Just recently, we as a family, have seen this confidence rewarded once again. After to holding onto to God and trusting Him for in excess of 18 years, He came through for us and proved Himself faithful once again. It was not always easy, but our trust has been rewarded, regardless of the fact that so much time has passed. So let us use this moment to reaffirm our trust and confidence in Him and let us be even more determined to trust Him even more.

LET US TRUST HIS WORD MORE…

There is something so powerful about just trusting His word. Some people allow scepticism about God’s word to pre-empt any confidence they may have in it. What a joy to just be able to take His word at face value and just trust it and believe in it. Recently we as a family were away on holiday and as we sat outside we looked up at the clear night sky and saw the stars in all their beauty. We don’t know much about the stars and the names, but we began to ask about Orion’s Belt and wondered where it was. We googled it and found it. Then we discovered that Job in the Old Testament wrote about this very group of stars thousands of years ago. Job is the oldest book in the Bible. It might be the oldest book in the world. It’s older than Genesis, though Genesis covers older material.

Job 9:9 ‘He is the Maker of the Bear and Orion, the Pleiades and the constellations of the south.’

Job 38:31 ‘Can you bind the chains of the Pleiades? Can you loosen Orion’s belt?’

We were amazed that something we thought may have been a more modern idea was mentioned in His word thousands of years ago. When you read the book of Job you are in good company. This same book was well-known and read in the day of David, Solomon and the Prophets. Let us trust His word even more. His word is part of the foundation of our faith. In a world that questions everything more and more, let us trust His word ever more.
