Blessed is the man that trusts in the LORD, and whose hope the LORD is. For he shall be as a tree planted by the waters, and that spreads out her roots by the river, and shall not see when heat comes, but her leaf shall be green; and shall not be careful in the year of drought, neither shall cease from yielding fruit. Jeremiah 17: 7-8 KJV
The Lord is encouraging us this day to put our trust in Him. Trust therefore is to have confidence in or reliance on God, and depending on God to prosper the works of your hand and grant your heart desires or prayer requests. It then becomes imperative that we trust God in this dire moment. Humans have limited knowledge of how to navigate their ways without missing steps. The best way to conquer your limitedness is to trust in the Lord with all of your heart and lean not on your own understanding.
God acknowledges that we have understanding, but He doesn’t want us to depend on it. He says to trust in Him. You are blessed when you trust the Lord and you become positioned to bear fruits in all kinds of seasons irrespective of the weather that surrounds you. We do not receive trust by impartation or prayers; it’s a decision to do so. The track records of the Lord are the most pronounced in all of human history and as such should command your trust without argument. Let your eyes be fixed on God. Trust in the Lord to give you that result this month and I see the Lord showing you great mercy and help. Those who trust in the Lord are never put to shame and I decree that your trust in God will not be in vain and no demon from anywhere will frustrate your answer this time. You will receive what is due for you this week in the mighty name of Jesus. Go and shine! It is your time!
Prayer of the Day: I command my light to shine forth in the name of Jesus, no more will it be hidden. I decree light to my works and light to my paths in the name of Jesus. I affirm that my trust is firmly rooted in God and I shall never be put to shame or stranded in life in Jesus’ name, amen.
