Trust God
 

Trust God

But let all those who take refuge and put their trust in You rejoice; let them ever sing and shout for joy, because You make a covering over them and defend them; let those also who love Your name be joyful in You and be in high spirits. —Psalm 5:11

Many wounded people don’t know how to get what they really need, so they wallow in self-pity. God once told me, “Joyce, you can be pitiful or powerful, but you can’t be both.”

Taking our eyes off of ourselves enables us to look to God. This positions us to trust Him to meet every need in our lives. God knows exactly what we need, and He promises to provide it through His abundant grace and mercy.

Ask Him to fill you with His power today, and trust Him as Jehovah-Jireh, the Lord our Provider (See Genesis 22:14 KJV).
