Psalm 91:2 (NKJV) 2 I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust.”
Whether we realize it or not, deciding to put our faith in God through the blood and sacrificial death of Jesus Christ is an incredible act of trust.
By doing this, we are stating by our actions that we trust God with our eternal soul.
The enormity of that act is lost to most of us, especially as we “get on with living life” and learning how to navigate this thing called Christianity.
As we do that, we tend to lean more on our natural understanding than we do on letting God lead us by His Spirit.
Why? Because trusting God with everyday living is not something that comes natural to human beings.
We simply try to think or reason our way through everything we face.
But trusting God in everything about our lives is critical in our walk with Him.
That trust is what allows us to grow and mature as a child of God.
Without trust, there is no relationship.
Trust does not happen instantly. It builds over time. It grows as we see things happen that create trust.
We might look at it as a “Catch 22” situation; we want to trust God, but we fail to “step out of the boat” until we are backed into a corner and have no other choice.
Therefore, we never get to see Him move because we do not allow Him the opportunity to do so.
It is imperative that we use the “measure of faith” that we have been given (Romans 12:3) to look beyond our own intellect and human understanding and allow God to move on our behalf.
In doing this, as we see Him move, it lights a fire in us that causes our faith in Him to sprout and begin to grow. And as we move forward, we find ourselves trusting Him more often, and with bigger things.
And the rest is like a snowball. The more we roll it, the bigger it gets!
2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.
