DO YOU FEEL LIKE GOD IS DISTANT?



Hey friend, welcome back to this series. I’m so delighted to have you back. This series would run for some weeks. I believe God has started a new thing and he is surely bringing it to completion.


PART 2


TRUSTING GOD ON A NEW LEVEL


The term 'TRUST’ isn't a new word but in our Christian journey there's always a demand to trust God on a new whole level ( Proverb 3:5).  Life throws lots of storms and winds which often have us to release a new level of trust in God.


Last week, I remembered the exact words of my younger Sister, ‘maybe God wants you to trust him on another level’. This word rang a bell in mind and felt like I haven't heard such words in years.  

It's easy for us to sing the popular hymn 'TRUST AND OBEY’. THE REALITY OF YOUR TRUST IN GOD IS MADE KNOWN WHEN IT SEEMS LIKE EVERYTHING IS FALLING APART.


Trusting God is never of the flesh.  Trying to trust God in your flesh would only make you feel God is distant. Trusting God is of the spirit.  It takes being in the spirit to hold onto the word of God. We live by the word of God and not by sight ( Hebrew 11:1).  Walking in the wings of the spirit helps to see the way God sees. In the scripture, when we think of trust , Job and Father Abraham readily come to mind.  Job trusted God even when his whole world crashed. He trusted God because he never relied on his own strength and understanding to do so.


Trusting God atimes would have you look foolish to the world as  Jesus was looked upon as foolish. God would never call you to what makes sense but rather what  makes faith. At every new season there's always a demand to trust in a whole new level. God's faithfulness is revealed day by day and often it is seen in circumstances and situations that would have us grow not just in grace but also grow in trusting God.


Are you in a place where it seems like your world has fallen apart?


Are you in place when it seems like you don't even know what the future looks like?


Are you in a place where you feel unloved ?


Are you in a place where it seems like 2020 came with a whole lot more than you can handle?


God is for you and never against you….all He might be asking of you maybe 'MY DAUGHTER,/ SON CAN YOU TRUST ME ON A WHOLE NEW LEVEL?’.


Thank you for reading!
