TRUST HIM ALWAYS: Devotion for Friday February 5, 2016

TRUST HIM ALWAYS     Friday February 5, 2016 

Text: Psalm 62:8 – 12    Memory verse: v 8

There are times we falter in faith despite the level of our knowledge of God and spirituality. It happened to Abraham when he hearkened to the voice of his wife by going into her maid. It also happened to John the Baptist while he was in prison. He sent message to confirm from Jesus Christ if He was the Messiah or not (Matt 11:2–6) despite revealing to his disciples that Jesus is the Messiah (Jn. 1:29–36). This has happened to some other men and women of God as we have it all over the scriptures. Life usually presents its curves, bumps and pot holes on our life’s journeys. All these are aimed at slowing us down and at times we begin to doubt God and His faithfulness.

In our scriptural reading of the day, the Psalmist who had experienced God’s faithfulness urges us to trust God for some reasons. He is our refuge (62:8), all power belongs to Him (62:11) and He is merciful (62:12). Thus we should trust God to guide us when in doubt, to protect us when in danger, to supply for us, when in want and to strengthen us for every good word, and work. We should trust when we can see, as well as when we are utterly in the dark. As you go out today, trust God to meet that pressing need of yours. Trust him to bring more customers to your business and to grant you favour as you go for that contract and business opportunities. The Lord, be with you.

Food for thought: Proverbs 3:5, 6 - Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.


Prayer: Lord, grant me stronger faith to trust you always as I go through curves of life in Jesus name.
