Daily Devotion -Trust And Obey

You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You. Because he trusts in You -Isaiah 26:3.

The Bible tells us in Prov. 3:5,6. "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not unto your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct your path."

When you love a person you will trust that person. Sometimes such freindship turns out "good" even with a few "bumps" here and there. But overall you'll say it was a "good" relationship. With God there is no let downs on His part. Keep your mind on Him and He'll keep you in perfect peace because you trusts Him. That trust in Him is with all your heart and there's no more leaning on your own understanding. In all your ways you acknowledge Him and He'll direct your path.

It is a path He's been down before. A path He's taken many times before your. A path that may be dark and dreary but you're sure to finish the journey successfully. Because you know the God whom you serve. He will never leave you comfortless. He will never leave you nor forsake you. The journey He started you on, He will be right there with you until the end. He knows the plans He has for you. Plans of a bright future and a hope. Plans of an expected end. Just put your hands in His and He'll do the rest. He'll see you all the way through to the end.

Prayer: God we thank you that even though there's a thief who wants to steal, kill and destroy us, we have a way of escape through You, who came to give us abundant life in this present age and eternal life in our future. Thank you Lord. Amen.

Encouragement: Isn't it sweet, the plans our God has for us? It starts with us accepting, believing and trusting in Him. Then keep our minds on Him and letting him direct our path.
