Proverbs 3:5-6 (NKJV) 5 Trust in the Lord with all your heart, And lean not on your own understanding; 6 In all your ways acknowledge Him, And He shall direct your paths.
Trusting God entails a lot of things.
First, it means that we not spend our time worrying and fretting about things that we might not understand.
Second, it means that we may encounter things that we may not understand in the natural, but that we rely on His Spirit to give us discernment and understanding in.
It also means that we watch and listen for His leading and direction in all things.
Nowhere, though, does it ever say or imply that we just trust Him, sit back and do nothing 100% of the time, expecting Him to do everything for us.
This is absolutely not true!
Trusting Him with all our heart means that we get His input and His understanding and then we let Him direct our paths.
That means that we have to do something!
You see, there will be times (most times) when we have to get up and walk out whatever it is that He shows us to do (directs our paths).
We have to take action! We have to walk out our faith in Him by doing whatever it is that He tells us to do.
So, it’s time, fellow warriors in Christ, to rise up!
Yes, we need to pray! Yes, we need to be sure to acknowledge Him in all our ways (everything we do)!
But we also need to let Him direct our paths and take action!
