Trust in God

This is what the Lord says:
Cursed is the one who trusts in man, who draws strength from mere flesh and whose heart turns away from the Lord. That person will be like a bush in the wastelands; they will not see prosperity when it comes. They will dwell in the parched places of the desert, in a salt land where no one lives.
- Jeremiah 17:5–6

Where do you seek help when difficulty comes? Many times, other people can help you, but do not forget God! Directly or indirectly, all help comes from the Lord. He is the only One who never fails. When things get hard, first ask for help from Almighty God.

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
- Psalm 121:1–2

It may seem more logical to ask people around us for help and leave God as a last resort. However, this is not a good idea. God is the only Almighty One, the only One who loves you completely and unconditionally, the only One who can change even the most difficult situations.

Keep your heart close to the Lord. Focus on God, on His greatness and His love for you. Learn to go to Him first and trust in His help. He will guide your steps so you can find the relief you need.

No matter what situation you are facing right now, talk to God. Ask for His intervention and express your trust in Him. Remember that in Christ there is always hope. Trust in His power with all your heart and wait on Him. He will help you!

Put your trust in God today!

Encouraging verses:

Yesterday's Word

In Sickness and in Health, God Is with You!

On good days, when you feel well and everything is going right, God is with you. On bad days, when you're sick, sad, and lacking motivation, God is still with you. Being a Christian doesn't mean you'll never face illness or hardship, but it does mean you'll never face them alone.

God is always present in your life!

The Lord is always by your side even when you don't see it, He is working. He loves you and will never forsake you. All you need to do is hold on to His promises. Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and remember: by His stripes you are healed.

The Lord sustains them on their sickbed
and restores them from their bed of illness.
- Psalm 41:3

Even if your current situation is overwhelming and you feel powerless, don't let it shake your faith. Stand firm as you are in the shadow of the Almighty, He will fill you with strength and get you through it all. He is with you.

My flesh and my heart may fail,
but God is the strength of my heart
and my portion forever.
- Psalm 73:26

Day Before Yesterday's Word

Standing firm

He will not let your foot slip—
he who watches over you will not slumber;
- Psalm 121:3

Whoever loves God and seeks to do His will can count on His help. Even when temptations come or when doubts trouble your heart, the Lord will support you and keep your feet firm on the Rock, which is Christ. Day and night, His eyes and His care are upon you. Hold on to God today. Do not ignore His presence or the arm that sustains you. He loves you, He cares for you, and He will not let your foot slip.

If you feel like you cannot go on or that your battles are too great, do what the psalmist did:

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord,
the Maker of heaven and earth.
- Psalm 121:1–2

Lift your eyes in prayer and ask God to help you. Remember the times when you saw God working in your life, when He helped you in the middle of struggles and difficulties.

Remember that God never abandons you. He is by your side, watching over you, paying attention to everything that happens in your life, and He will continue to be with you forever. Trust in His care.

The Lord will keep you from all harm—
he will watch over your life;
the Lord will watch over your coming and going
both now and forevermore.
- Psalm 121:7–8
