“When we walk with the Lord; In the light of His word; What a glory He shed on our way; While we do His good will, He abides with us still; And with all who will trust and obey.”

THE above popular hymn, has elaborately spoken how and why we should trust God. Trusting God is one of our cardinal duties to God as our Creator, but many do not believe this. In fact, they do not believe that God can deliver them, make them rich, help them recover what they have lost, give them children or heal them. Some have even concluded that God can never forgive them of their sins.

However, one undisputable fact is that from the Bible days to date, nobody has reposed confidence in God and be disappointed. He has delivered those in bondage and promised those with heavily burden rest. He is also extending His mercy to any sinner that would repent of his/her evil ways. So, it is clear that with God, all our aspirations are possible.

Phil 4:19 says, “but my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.” So, hope on God and you will never be disappointed. Mt 8:16 assures us that Jesus is the hope for the hopeless. Dry your tears and cast your burden on Him, according to 1Pet 5:7.

Why we must trust in Him

One of the reasons for doing this, is that with Him all things are possible, irrespective of the problem or who is behind it. What matters is that He has all the power to positively change your situation. He has the power to give children, job, heal the sick, make the lame walk, the blind to see, deaf and dumb to speak and hear and others. Whatever you are going through today, if you invite Him into your life, He will deliver you.

Psalms 62:11 says, “God hath spoken once; twice have I heard that power belongeth unto God.” God alone has the power to do all things; hence He alone should be trusted. Babalawo has no power; those charms on your waist or pocket have no power, neither your boss nor friend, because all power belong to God. So, why do you trust that Babalawo or friend, etc. Why do you still consult that sorcerer or fear that man in your office? Note, none of them has power to deliver you from sin or your bondage.

Jesus healed all that came to Him; He cares for you and is ready to change you for the better. Don’t give up hope, no matter what you are going through; believe in Jesus and He will restore you.
