First, Not Finally

This important choice to trust doesn’t mean everything suddenly turns to sunshine and roses.
Circumstances do not instantly resolve themselves and fall perfectly into place. That’s not how it works. Instead, we find that our choice to trust God will bring a presence of peace we didn’t have before. This is the kind of peace we read about in Isaiah 26:3:

“You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.”
Proverbs 3:5 - “Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding. “

The Devotion of Hearing

1 Samuel 3:10
And the Lord came, and stood, and called as at other times, Samuel, Samuel. Then Samuel answered, Speak; for thy servant heareth.

Commands

. Make no provision for lusts

Romans 13:14
But put on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make no provision for the flesh, to fulfill its lusts.

. Make full proof of ministry

2 Timothy 4:5
But you be watchful in all things, endure afflictions, do the work of an evangelist, fulfil your ministry

Word – Power in the name of Jesus

I am not ashamed of the gospel, because it is the power of God for the salvation of everyone who believes. — Romans 1:16

For the rich and poor, young and old, weak and strong, thin and heavy, there is still just one message and one name and one story that makes the eternal difference. That one message, story, and name are announced in the gospel — God's good news to the world in Jesus Christ. God's good news of life in the story of Jesus Christ is The Story and The Message and The Hope for all.
